History
We were incorporated under Colorado law in June 1988 under the name Andraplex Corporation.
We changed our name to Yaak River Resources, Inc. in January 1992, to Lifeline Therapeutics, Inc.
in October 2004, and to Lifevantage Corporation in November 2006.
For the period from July 2003 to June 2005, the Company was in the development stage. The
Companys activities until February 2005 consisted primarily of organizing the Company, developing
a business plan, formulation and testing of product, and raising capital. In late February 2005,
the Company began sales of its product Protandim® and commenced principal planned operations.
Accordingly, the Company is no longer in the development stage.
On October 26, 2004, we acquired approximately 81% of the outstanding common stock of Lifeline
Nutraceuticals Corporation (Lifeline Nutraceuticals), a privately-held Colorado corporation,
formed in July 2003 (the Reorganization). The Reorganization was treated as a reverse merger for
accounting purposes. As a result of the Reorganization, LifeVantage owned 81% of the outstanding
common stock of Lifeline Nutraceuticals. Subsequent to the Reorganization, in March 2005 we
completed the acquisition of the remaining 19% minority shareholder interest in Lifeline
Nutraceuticals. LifeVantage currently owns 100% of the common stock of Lifeline Nutraceuticals.
Lifeline Nutraceuticals developed and holds the intellectual property rights to Protandim®.
Our Business
LifeVantage has formulated and markets Protandim®, a patented, scientifically proven product
to address the problem of oxidative stress in humans. Protandim® stimulates the bodys ability to
increase production of its own naturally occurring antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD)
and catalase (CAT) at levels substantially higher than possible with any externally consumed
antioxidants such as foods rich in antioxidants and vitamins. Protandim® is being marketed and
sold as a dietary supplement. We have been advised by regulatory legal counsel that Protandim®
satisfies or meets the definition of dietary supplement that is set out in Section 3 of the
Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA), codified as §201(ff) of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Act (FFDCA) (21 U.S.C. §321(ff)).
One of the paradoxes of life on this planet is that the molecule that sustains aerobic life,
oxygen, is not only fundamentally essential for energy metabolism and respiration, but causes many
diseases and degenerative conditions. Oxidative stress is widely known to play a key role in the
aging process and the bodys defenses against oxidative stress and free radicals decrease with age,
resulting in numerous age-related ailments and diseases.
Oxidative stress results from the fact that we breathe air and utilize oxygen to generate
energy. Unfortunately, a small percentage of the oxygen we utilize generates toxic oxygen free
radicals that damage the cells and tissues of the human body and consequently negatively impact
our general health. Oxidative stress refers to the cellular and tissue damage caused by chemically
reactive oxygen radicals formed as a natural consequence of cellular metabolism. These reactive
oxygen species
(ROS) and free radicals can be elevated under a wide variety of conditions, including radiation,
ultra-violet light, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, various medical conditions such as
neurodegenerative diseases and diabetes, and advancing age.
3
Our bodies benefit from the nutrients found in foods known to be rich in antioxidants such as
oranges, blueberries, dark chocolate and red wine. However, you cannot eat enough of these foods
to equal the antioxidant enzymes generated by taking one Protandim® caplet daily. We estimate that
it would take the antioxidants contained in 10 pounds of blueberries, 375 oranges, 15 pounds of
dark chocolate or 78 glasses of red wine, or one Protandim® caplet to protect against the amount of
free radicals your body produces daily.
Throughout this Prospectus we use the term nutraceutical. This term is not defined by the
FFDCA, but is commonly used by the public. Nutraceutical is often used in lieu of dietary
supplement, a term defined by the FFDCA. Currently we are only offering a dietary supplement for
sale. For more information, please visit www.protandim.com.
Results of a Human Study with Protandim®
Brief Summary Twenty-nine normal, healthy human subjects ranging in age from 20 to 78
received Protandim® (one capsule, 675 mg daily). Blood was drawn for analysis at 0, 30, and 120
days (see chart below). Some of the subjects took no other antioxidant supplements, while others
continued to take vitamin C and/or vitamin E and/or multivitamins they had been taking before they
enrolled in the study.
Lipid peroxidation in the plasma was measured by thiobarbituric acid-reacting substances
(TBARS). After 30 days of Protandim® supplementation, plasma TBARS declined significantly, more
so in the older subjects (about 69%) than in the younger subjects (about 30%). The age-dependent
increase in TBARS seen prior to supplementation was no longer present. The average TBARS
concentration decreased to 0.95 micromolar, a level that one would expect to see in a 15 year old.
After 120 days of Protandim® supplementation, red blood cells analyzed for SOD and CAT showed
statistically significant increases in SOD of 30% (p < 0.01) and in CAT of 54% (p < 0.002).
This study was published in the peer reviewed scientific journal of Free Radical Biology &
Medicine in January 2006, and a copy of the study is available on the Company website at
www.Protandim.com.
Conclusion We believe that this study is consistent with the thesis that Protandim®
can reduce oxidative stress in healthy humans as they age, and that the reduction may be
significant. Based on the studies to date, there is evidence that lipid peroxidation decreases as
a result of human use of Protandim® supplements. Although there can be no assurance, we believe
that the significant increases of the antioxidant enzymes (SOD and CAT in humans) suggest that the
operative mechanism is increased scavenging of reactive oxygen intermediates by the bodys native
antioxidant enzymes. The modest but significant increase in serum urate is consistent with this
mechanism.

The Offering
In September 2007 and October 2007, we sold convertible debentures and warrants in a private
placement offering. In connection with the issuance of the convertible debentures and warrants, we
agreed to file a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
registering the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible debentures and
exercise of the warrants. The shares of common stock underlying the convertible debentures and
warrants are offered for resale in this Prospectus.
In September 2007, we entered into a consulting arrangement with Bolder Venture Partners
(BVP) to provide marketing consulting services. In connection with the arrangement with BVP, we
granted BVP a warrant to purchase up to 1,200,000 shares of our common stock at $0.30 per share. The
shares of common stock underlying the warrant vest in monthly increments through September 2008 as
well as upon the achievement of certain performance milestones by BVP. The shares of common stock
underlying the warrant issued to BVP are offered for resale in this Prospectus.
In June 2007 we issued to Richard Wexler a warrant to purchase 100,000 shares of our common
stock at $.20 per share in exchange for Mr. Wexlers services in facilitating a transaction with
Letnom Productions. The shares of common stock underlying the warrant issued to Mr. Wexler are
offered for resale in this Prospectus.
5
LifeVantage is not offering any securities pursuant to this Prospectus. The selling security
holders named below are offering 7,450,000 shares of our common stock underlying convertible
debentures currently held by the selling security holders and 9,495,000 shares of our common stock
underlying warrants currently held by the selling security holders.
Each convertible debenture and warrant was issued by the Company as a restricted security as
such term is defined in Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act).
The exercise of the warrants and the conversion of the convertible debentures are not included in
this Prospectus. Holders may exercise the warrants and convert the convertible debentures only
pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws.

We have a limited operating history and lack of sufficient revenues from operations.
We did not generate any significant revenues from the sale of Protandim® until the
last six months of fiscal 2005. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2006 and 2007, we generated
revenues of $7,165,819 and $5,050,988, respectively. Even though we have expended in excess of
$20,700,000 in research and development activities and overhead expenses since July 2003, we do not
have a long operating history with sufficient revenue in excess of these costs to date. We
commenced sales of our only product, Protandim®, in February 2005. For our fiscal year
ended June 30, 2006, we incurred a net loss of $2,734,501 and for our fiscal year ended June 30,
3007, we incurred a net loss of $3,693,578. Cash generated from operations is insufficient to
satisfy our liquidity requirements and led us to raise additional financing. Additional financing
may be dilutive to our existing shareholders. If we are unable to increase our revenues or obtain
sufficient additional financing, we will be required to reduce the scope of our planned operations,
which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.
There is no assurance that we will be successful in expanding our operations and, if successful,
managing our future growth.
If we are unable to generate revenues that are sufficient to cover our costs, our results of
operations will be materially and adversely affected, and we will be unable to expand our
operations and may be required to further reduce the scope of our planned operations. If we are
able to expand our operations in the future, we may experience periods of rapid growth, including
increased staffing levels. Any such growth will place a substantial strain on our management,
operational, financial and other resources, and we will need to train, motivate, and manage
employees, as well as attract sales, technical, and other professionals. Any failure to expand
these areas and implement appropriate procedures and controls in an efficient manner and at a pace
consistent with our business objectives would have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition, and results of operations.
Government regulators and regulations could adversely affect our business.
The formulation, manufacturing, packaging, labeling, advertising, distribution, and sale of
our product, as well as other dietary supplements, are subject to regulation by a number of
federal, state, and local agencies, including but not limited to the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). See Business Government Approval and
Regulations. These agencies have a variety of procedures and enforcement remedies available to
them, including but not limited to:
|
|
|
Initiating investigations; |
|
|
|
|
Issuing warning letters and cease and desist orders; |
|
|
|
|
Demanding recalls; |
|
|
|
|
Initiating adverse publicity; |
|
|
|
|
Requiring corrective labeling or advertising; |
|
|
|
|
Requiring consumer redress and/or disgorgement; |
|
|
|
|
Seeking injunctive relief or product seizures; |
|
|
|
|
Initiating judicial actions; and |
|
|
|
|
Imposing civil penalties or commencing criminal prosecution. |
Federal and state agencies have in the past used these types of remedies in regulating
participants in the dietary supplement industry, including the imposition by federal agencies of
monetary redress in the millions of dollars. Adverse publicity related to dietary supplements may
result in increased regulatory scrutiny, undermine or eliminate the acceptance of our product by
consumers and lead to the initiation of private lawsuits. Product recalls could result in
unexpected expense of the recall and any legal proceedings that might arise in connection with the
recall.
7
Our failure to comply with applicable laws could also subject us to severe legal sanctions
that could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Specific
action taken against us could result in a material adverse effect on our business and results of
operations. Furthermore, a state could interpret product claims that are presumptively valid under
federal law are nonetheless illegal under that states regulations.
Future laws or regulations may hinder or prohibit the production or sale of our existing product
and any future products.
We may be subject to additional laws or regulations in the future, such as those administered
by the FDA, FTC, or other federal, state, or local regulatory authorities. See Government Approval
and Regulations. Laws or regulations that we consider favorable may be modified or repealed.
Current laws or regulations may be amended or interpreted more stringently. The FDA has proposed
extensive good manufacturing practice regulations for dietary supplements. We are unable to predict
the nature of such future laws, regulations, or interpretations, nor can we predict what effect
they may have on our business. Possible effects or requirements could include, but are not limited
to, the following:
|
|
|
The reformulation of products to meet new standards; |
|
|
|
|
Additional ingredient restrictions; |
|
|
|
|
Additional claim restrictions; |
|
|
|
|
The recall or discontinuance of products unable to be reformulated; |
|
|
|
|
Imposition of additional good manufacturing practices and/or record keeping
requirements; |
|
|
|
|
Expanded documentation of the properties of products; and |
|
|
|
|
Expanded or different labeling or scientific substantiation. |
Any such requirements could have material adverse effects on our business, financial condition, or
results of operations.
Unfavorable publicity could materially hurt our business and the value of your investment.
We are highly dependent upon consumers perceptions of the safety, quality, and efficacy of
our products, as well as products distributed by other companies. Future scientific research or
publicity may not be favorable to our industry or any particular product, or consistent with
earlier research or publicity. Future reports or research that are perceived less favorably or that
question such earlier research could have a material adverse effect on us. Because of our
dependence upon consumer perceptions, adverse publicity associated with illness or other adverse
effects resulting from the consumption of our product or any similar products distributed by other
companies could have a material adverse impact on us. Such adverse publicity could arise even if
the adverse effects associated with such products resulted from failure to consume such products as
directed. We may be unable to counter the effects of negative publicity concerning the efficacy of
our product. Adverse publicity could also increase our product liability exposure.
We are and will continue to be subject to the risk of investigatory and enforcement action by the
FTC, which could have a negative impact upon the price of our stock.
We will always be subject to the risk of investigatory and enforcement action by the FTC based
on our advertising claims and marketing practices. The FTC routinely reviews product advertising,
including websites, to identify significant questionable advertising claims and practices. The FTC
has brought many actions against dietary supplement companies based upon allegations that
applicable advertising claims or practices were deceptive and/or not substantiated. If the FTC
initiates an investigation, the FTC can initiate pre-complaint discovery that may be nonpublic in
nature. Such an investigation: (i) may be very expensive to defend, (ii) may be lengthy, and (iii)
may result in an adverse ruling by a court, administrative law judge, or in a publicly disclosed
consent decree.
The dietary supplement market is highly competitive.
The market for the sale of dietary supplements is highly competitive. Our competitors could
have greater financial and other resources available to them and possess better manufacturing,
distribution and marketing capabilities. As the dietary supplement industry grows and changes,
retailers may align themselves with larger suppliers who may be more financially stable, market a
broad portfolio of products or offer better customer service. Increased competition or increased
pricing pressure could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial
condition. Among other factors, competition among manufacturers, distributors, and retailers of
dietary supplements is based upon price. Because of the high degree of price competition, we may
not be able to pass on increases in raw material prices to our customers. If a competitor reduces
their price in order to gain market share or if raw material prices increase and we are unable to
pass along the cost to our customers, our results of operations and financial condition could be
materially adversely affected.
Our business is susceptible to product liability claims, which could adversely affect our results
of operations and financial condition.
8
The manufacture and sale of any product for human consumption raises the risk of product
liability claims if a customer alleges an adverse reaction after using the product. These claims
may derive from the product itself or a contaminant found in the product from the manufacturing,
packaging, sales process or even due to tampering by unauthorized third parties. Even with the
product liability/completed operations insurance we have obtained, there will be a risk that
insurance will not cover our potential exposure completely or would fail to cover a particular
claim, in which case we may not have the financial resources to satisfy such claims. In addition,
certain damages in litigation, such as punitive damages, are not covered by our insurance policy.
The payment of claims would require us to use funds that are otherwise needed to conduct our
business and make our products. In the event that we do not have adequate insurance or other
indemnification coverage, product liability claims and litigation could have a material adverse
effect on our results of operation and financial condition.
Consumers of our products may not feel noticeable physiological differences after taking
Protandim®.
Consumers of our product may not feel noticeable physiological differences after taking
Protandim®. One of our marketing challenges is educating consumers about
Protandim®s benefits and encouraging continued use of the product despite the lack of
noticeable physiological differences. Consequently, consumers may not continue to purchase our
product, which would have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition, and
results of operation.
We have no manufacturing capabilities and we are dependent upon a third party to manufacture our
product.
We are dependent upon our relationship with an independent manufacturer to fulfill our product
needs. We currently only use one manufacturer for our product. Accordingly, we are dependent on the
uninterrupted and efficient operation of this manufacturers facility. Our ability to market and
sell our product requires that our product be manufactured in commercial quantities, without
significant delay and in compliance with applicable federal and state regulatory requirements. In
addition, we must be able to have our product manufactured at a cost that permits us to charge a
price acceptable to the customer while also accommodating any distribution costs or third-party
sales compensation. If our current manufacturer is unable for any reason to fulfill our
requirements, or seeks to impose unfavorable terms, we will have to seek out other contract
manufacturers which could disrupt our operations and have a material adverse effect on our results
of operation and financial condition. Competitors who perform their own manufacturing may have an
advantage over us with respect to pricing, availability of product, and in other areas through
their control of the manufacturing process.
Raw material for our product may be difficult to obtain or expensive.
Our third party manufacturer acquires the raw materials necessary for the manufacture of
Protandim®. We cannot assure you that suppliers will provide the raw materials our
manufacturer needs in the quantities requested, at a price we are willing to pay, or that meet our
quality standards. The failure to supply raw materials or changes in the material terms of raw
material supply arrangements could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and
financial condition. We are also subject to potential delays in the delivery of raw materials
caused by events beyond our control, including labor disputes, transportation interruptions,
weather-related events, natural disasters or other catastrophic events, and changes in government
regulations. Any significant delay in or disruption of the supply of raw materials could, among
other things, substantially increase the cost of such materials, require reformulation or
repackaging of products, require the qualification of new suppliers, or result in our inability to
meet customer demands. Raw materials account for a significant portion of our manufacturing costs.
Significant increases in raw material prices could have a material adverse effect on our results of
operations and financial condition.
We depend on a limited number of significant customers and the loss of any of them could negatively
affect our business.
Our largest customer is GNC, which accounts for over 28% of our revenue, and the loss of GNC
as a customer, or a significant reduction in purchase volume by GNC, would have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition. The loss of other retailers could also adversely affect our
financial condition.
In addition, pursuant to our agreement with GNC, sales are made on a sale or return basis
whereby product can be returned by GNC customers for a full refund. We have sufficient history with
GNC to reasonably estimate the rate of product returns and we recognize revenue associated with
sales to GNC when product is sold by GNC to the consumer with an allowance for future product
returns based on historical product return information. However, GNCs return policy could permit
consumers to return a greater percentage of our product than historically experienced which could
negatively impact our revenues and results of operation.
Product returns may adversely affect our business.
Product returns are part of our business. In addition to the sale or return policy
applicable to sales through GNC described above and certain other retailers, we offer a 30-day,
money back unconditional guarantee to all customers.
9
We record allowances for product returns at the time we ship the product. We base these
accruals on the historical return rate since the inception of our selling activities, and the
specific historical return patterns of the product. Our return rate since the inception of selling
activities is approximately 2% of sales. We replace returned product damaged during shipment wholly
at our cost, which historically has been negligible. We cannot guarantee, however, that future
return rates or costs associated with returns do not increase.
To date, product expiration dates have not played any role in product returns; however, it is
possible that product returns will increase in the future as a result of product expiration dates.
We currently depend on a single product for our revenue.
Protandim® is currently the only product we sell and, as such, we cannot rely on a
broad portfolio of other products to support our operations in the event we experience any
difficulty with the manufacture, marketing, sale, or distribution of Protandim®. We
cannot assure you that Protandim® will maintain or increase its popularity.
Worsening economic conditions may adversely affect our business.
The demand for dietary supplements tends to be sensitive to consumers disposable income.
Therefore, a decline in general economic conditions may lead to our consumers having less
discretionary income with which to purchase such products. This could cause a reduction in our
projected revenues and have a material adverse effect on operating results.
We may face limited availability of additional capital.
Should we need to borrow money from financial institutions or other third parties, or raise
additional capital in the future, the cost of capital may be high. Traditional debt financing may
be unavailable and we may have to seek alternative sources of financing, including the issuance of
new shares of stock or preferential stock that could dilute current shareholders. There can be no
guarantee that we could successfully complete such a stock issuance or otherwise raise additional
capital.
We could be exposed to certain environmental liabilities due to our past operations and property
ownership.
Between 1993 and 1999, we owned mining properties in the Yaak River mining district of
Montana. The Company maintained these mining properties pursuant to Montana law, but never
conducted any mining operations or ore processing. Prior to completing the acquisition of Lifeline
Nutraceuticals Corporation, our management and consultants reviewed the records of this prior
ownership and certain publicly available records relating to the properties. The State of Montana
Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) believed that the properties may contain residues from
past mining. Since we have not performed on-site environmental studies to evaluate the
environmental circumstances of these properties, there is a risk that there may be material
environmental liabilities associated with our former property interests in Montana for which we may
be liable, however we cannot provide a reasonable estimate of such risk.
In addition, until November 10, 2004, we owned 91 lots in Lawrence, Colorado. We are not aware
of any environmental liabilities with respect to these lots as the party acquiring the property
assumed any environmental liability to which the property might be subject. Nonetheless, there is a
risk that a governmental agency or a private individual may assert liability against us for
violation of environmental laws related to the ownership of this property.
Risks Related to Our Intellectual Property and Obsolescence
Our intellectual property rights are valuable, and any inability to protect them could reduce the
value of our products and brand.
We have attempted to protect our intellectual property rights in Protandim® through
a combination of confidentiality agreements, patent applications, and other contractual provisions.
The original inventors of Protandim®, William Driscoll and Paul Myhill, assigned all
patent filings to LNC, our wholly owned subsidiary, and the assignment has been filed with the
United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). Our intellectual property is covered by one
U.S. Patent granted on July 10, 2007 and two U.S. utility patent applications on file with the
USPTO. A PCT International Patent Application is also on file. These patent applications claim the
benefit of priority of seven U.S. provisional patent applications. There is no guarantee that any
additional patent applications will be approved or that additional patents will be issued, or if
they are, that the patents will contain all of the original claims. The loss of our intellectual
property rights in our Protandim® product could permit our competitors to manufacture
their own version of our product which could have a materially adverse effect on our revenues. Even
if our existing patent applications are approved and patents are issued, patents only provide
limited protection against infringement claims, and patent infringement suits are complex,
expensive, and not always successful.
If we do not continue to innovate and provide products that are useful to consumers, we may not
remain competitive, and our revenues and operating results could suffer.
10
Scientists, research institutions, and commercial institutions are making advances and
improvements in nutritional supplements and issues relating to oxidative stress and aging very
quickly, both domestically and internationally. It is possible that future developments may occur,
and these developments may render Protandim® non-competitive. We believe that our future
success will depend in large part upon our ability to develop, commercialize, and market products
that address issues relating to aging and oxidative stress, and to anticipate successfully or to
respond to technological changes in manufacturing processes on a cost-effective and timely basis.
The development and commercialization process, particularly relating to innovative products, is
both time-consuming and costly and involves a high degree of business risk. The success of new
products or product enhancements is subject to a number of variables, including developing products
that will appeal to customers, accurately anticipating consumer needs, pricing a product
competitively and complying with laws and regulations. The failure to successfully develop or
launch or gain distribution for new product offerings or product enhancements could have a material
adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
If we are unable to protect our proprietary information against unauthorized use by others, our
competitive position could be harmed.
Our proprietary information is critically important to our competitive position and is a
significant aspect of our product. We generally enter into confidentiality or non-compete
agreements with our employees and consultants, and control access to, and distribution of, our
documentation and other proprietary information. Despite these precautions, these strategies may
not be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our proprietary information. Therefore, we could be
required to expend significant amounts to defend our rights to proprietary information in the
future if a breach were to occur.
Other parties might claim that we infringe on their intellectual property rights.
Although the dietary supplement industry has historically been characterized by products with
naturally occurring ingredients in capsule or tablet form, recently it is becoming more common for
suppliers and competitors to apply for patents or develop proprietary technologies and processes.
We cannot assure you that third parties will not assert intellectual property infringement claims
against us despite our efforts to avoid such infringement. To the extent that these developments
prevent us from offering competitive products in the marketplace, or result in litigation or
threatened litigation against us related to alleged or actual infringement of third-party rights,
these developments could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial
condition.
Risk Factors Relating to our Common Stock
Our management and large shareholders exercise significant control over our Company and may approve
or take actions that may be adverse to your interests.
As of June 30, 2007, our named executive officers, directors, and 5% stockholders beneficially
owned approximately 38% of our voting power. For the foreseeable future, to the extent such
shareholders vote all their shares in the same manner, they will be able to exercise control over
many matters requiring approval by the board of directors or our shareholders. As a result, they
will be able to:
|
|
|
Control the composition of our board of directors; |
|
|
|
|
Control our management and policies; |
|
|
|
|
Determine the outcome of the significant corporate transactions; including changes in
control that may be beneficial to shareholders; and |
|
|
|
|
Act in each of their own interests, which may conflict with, or be different from, the
interests of each other or the interests of the other shareholders. |
Our common stock could be classified as penny stock and is extremely illiquid, so investors may not
be able to sell as much stock as they want at prevailing market prices.
Our common stock is subject to additional disclosure requirements for penny stocks mandated by
the Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990. The SEC Regulations generally define a penny stock to be an
equity security that is not traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market and has a market price of less than
$5.00 per share. Depending upon our stock price, we may be included within the SEC Rule 3a-51
definition of a penny stock, with trading of our common stock covered by Rule 15g-9 promulgated
under the Exchange Act. Under this rule, broker-dealers who sell or effect the purchase of penny
stock to persons other than established customers or in certain exempted transactions, must make a
special written disclosure to, and suitability determination for, the purchaser and receive the
purchasers written agreement to a transaction prior to sale. The regulations on penny stocks limit
the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and thus may limit the ability of purchasers
of our common stock to sell their securities in the secondary market. Our common stock will also be
considered penny stock if our net tangible assets do not exceed $5,000,000 or our average revenue
is not at least $6,000,000 in a prior three year period.
The average daily trading volume of our common stock on the over-the-counter market was
approximately 41,700 shares per day over the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007. If limited trading in
our stock continues, it may be difficult for investors to sell their shares in the public market at
any given time at prevailing prices.
11
Our stock price may experience future volatility.
The trading price of our common stock has historically been subject to wide fluctuations. The
price of our common stock may fluctuate in the future in response to quarter-to-quarter variations
in operating results, material announcements by us or competitors, governmental regulatory action,
conditions in the dietary supplement industry, or other events or factors, many of which are beyond
our control. In addition, the stock market has historically experienced significant price and
volume fluctuations which have particularly affected the market prices of many dietary supplement
companies and which have, in certain cases, not had a strong correlation to the operating
performance of such companies. In addition, our operating results in future quarters may be below
the expectations of securities analysts and investors. In such events, the price of our common
stock would likely decline, perhaps substantially.
Issuance of shares in connection with financing transactions or under stock plans and outstanding
convertible debt and warrants will dilute current shareholders.
Pursuant to our 2007 Long Term Incentive Plan, we are authorized to grant stock options to our
employees, directors and consultants. As of November 30, 2007, options to purchase a total of
1,431,813 shares were outstanding under the Plan and options to purchase 4,568,187 shares remained
available for grant under the Plan. In addition, we also have warrants outstanding to purchase
2,879,516 shares of our common stock outside of the 2007 Long Term Incentive Plan.
Our shareholders will incur dilution upon the exercise of any outstanding stock options or
warrants or upon the conversion of outstanding convertible debentures. In addition, if we raise
additional funds by issuing additional common stock, or securities convertible into or exchangeable
or exercisable for common stock, further dilution to our existing shareholders will result, and new
investors could gain rights superior to our existing shareholders.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by selling security holders pursuant
to this Prospectus. However, if all of the warrants are exercised in full, we would receive
$2,838,500 in proceeds. Any proceeds received upon the exercise of such warrants will be used for
general working capital purposes consistent with our business strategy.
DILUTION
We are not selling any common stock pursuant to this Prospectus. Upon the conversion of
outstanding convertible debentures and the exercise of outstanding warrants, the selling security
holders will become shareholders of the Company, which will result in dilution to our existing
shareholders. There will be no further dilution from the sale of common stock pursuant to this
Prospectus.
SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS
The securities are being offered by the named selling security holders below. The table below
assumes the immediate conversion of all convertible debentures and exercise of all warrants to
purchase common stock, without regard to other factors that may determine whether such rights of
conversion or purchase are exercised. These factors include but are not limited to the other rights
associated with the terms of the convertible debentures and warrants, whether there is a specific
exemption to registration under federal and state securities laws for the conversion or exercise,
and the specific conversion of exercise price of the securities held by each selling security
holder and its relation to the market price.
The selling security holders may from time to time offer and sell pursuant to this Prospectus
up to an aggregate of 7,450,000 shares of our common stock issuable to them upon the conversion, at
$.20 per share, of the convertible debentures currently held by the selling security holders and up
to an aggregate of 9,495,000 shares of our common stock issuable to
them upon the exercise, at $.20 per share or $.30
per share, as applicable, of the warrants currently held by the selling security holders. The selling security
holders acquired (i) 15,645,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the 2007 Offering discussed
herein and (ii) 1,300,000 shares of common stock pursuant to warrants granted by the Company under
consulting arrangements. The selling security holders may, from time to time, offer and sell any or
all of the shares that are registered under this Prospectus, although they are not obligated to do
so.
We do not know when or in what amounts the selling security holders may offer the shares
described in this Prospectus for sale. The selling security holders may decide not to exercise any
warrants or sell any of the shares that this Prospectus covers. Because the selling security
holders may offer all or some of the shares pursuant to this Prospectus, and because there are
currently no agreements,
12
arrangements or understandings with respect to the sale of any of the
shares that the selling security holders will hold after completion of the offering pursuant to
this Prospectus, we cannot estimate the number of the shares that the selling security holders will
hold after completion of the offering. However, for purposes of the following tables, we have
assumed that, after completion of the offering pursuant to this Prospectus, the selling security
holders will hold none of the securities that this Prospectus covers.
The following table sets forth, to the Companys best knowledge and belief, with respect to
the selling security holders:
|
|
|
the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned as of November
30, 2007 and prior to the offering contemplated by this Prospectus, |
|
|
|
|
the number of shares of common stock eligible for resale and to be
offered by each selling security holder pursuant to this Prospectus, |
|
|
|
|
the number of shares owned by each selling security holder after the
offering contemplated by this Prospectus, assuming that all shares
eligible for resale pursuant to this Prospectus actually are sold, |
|
|
|
|
the percentage of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each
selling security holder after the offering contemplated by this
Prospectus, and |
|
|
|
|
in notes to the table, additional information concerning the selling
security holders, including any NASD affiliations and any
relationships, excluding non-executive employee and other non-material
relationships, that a selling security holder had during the past
three years with the registrant or any of its predecessors or
affiliates.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Each of the selling security holders, which as used herein includes donees, pledgees,
transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares
of common stock received after the date of this Prospectus from a selling security holder as a
gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may from time to time offer and sell the
shares of common stock included in this Prospectus. Holders of convertible debentures or warrants
may convert those debentures or exercise those warrants, as applicable, only pursuant to an
available exemption from registration. Once converted or exercised, the shares of common stock
underlying the convertible debentures and warrants may be sold pursuant to the terms of this
Prospectus. To the extent required, we may amend and supplement this Prospectus from time to time
to describe a specific plan of distribution.
Each selling security holder will act independently in making decisions with respect to the
timing, manner, and size of each sale. Each selling security holder has advised us that he, she or
it may make these sales at prices and under terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then
current market price. The selling security holders have advised us that they may also make sales in
negotiated transactions, including pursuant to one or more of the following methods:
|
|
|
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by such broker-dealer for its own
account pursuant to this Prospectus; |
|
|
|
|
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers; |
|
|
|
|
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may
position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; |
|
|
|
|
an over-the-counter distribution in accordance with the rules of the OTC Bulletin Board; and |
|
|
|
|
in privately negotiated transactions. |
In connection with distributions of the shares or otherwise, the selling security holders have
advised us that each may:
|
|
|
enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage
in short sales of the shares in the course of hedging the positions they assume; |
|
|
|
|
sell the shares short and redeliver the shares to close out such short positions; |
|
|
|
|
enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions which require the
delivery to them of shares that this Prospectus offers, which they may in turn resell; and |
|
|
|
|
pledge shares to a broker-dealer or other financial institution, which, upon a default, they may in turn resell. |
In addition, the selling security holders may sell any shares that qualify for sale pursuant
to Rule 144, rather than pursuant to this Prospectus.
In effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents that the selling security holders engage may
arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions,
discounts or concessions from the selling security holders in amounts that the parties may
negotiate immediately prior to the sale. However, under the NASD rules and regulations, such
broker-dealers may not receive a commission or discount in excess of 8% for the sale of any
securities registered hereunder.
In offering shares that this Prospectus covers, the selling security holders, and any
broker-dealers and any other participating broker-dealers who execute sales for the selling
security holders, may qualify as underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 in
connection with these sales. Any profits that the selling security holders realize, and the
compensation that they pay to any broker-dealer, may qualify as underwriting discounts and
commissions.
In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, the selling security holders must
sell the shares in those states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In
addition, in some states the selling security holders may sell the shares only if we have
registered or qualified those shares for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the
registration or qualification requirement is available and the selling security holder complies
with the exemption.
We have advised the selling security holders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M
under the Exchange Act of 1934 may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of
the selling security holders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make
15
copies of this
Prospectus available to the selling security holders for the purpose of satisfying the Prospectus
delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling security holders may indemnify any
broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against
liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
At the time a selling security holder makes a particular offer of shares we will, if required,
file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement covering those shares and/or
distribute a Prospectus supplement that will set forth:
|
|
|
the number of shares that the selling security holder is offering; |
|
|
|
|
the terms of the offering, including the name of any underwriter, dealer or agent; |
|
|
|
|
the purchase price paid by any underwriter; |
|
|
|
|
any discount, commission and other underwriter compensation; |
|
|
|
|
any discount, commission or concession allowed or reallowed or paid to any dealer; and |
|
|
|
|
the proposed selling price to the public. |
We have agreed to indemnify the selling security holders against claims and losses due to
material misstatements or omissions made by us (and not by the selling security holders) in this
Prospectus. Each of the selling security holders has agreed to indemnify us against claims and
losses due to material misstatements or omissions made by them.

Overview
Lifevantage Corporation (the Company, LifeVantage, we, our, or us), manufactures,
markets, distributes, and sells Protandim®, a patented dietary supplement intended to
increase the bodys natural antioxidant protection by inducing multiple protective enzymes

Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330.
History
We were incorporated under Colorado law in June 1988 under the name Andraplex Corporation. We
changed our name to Yaak River Resources, Inc. in January 1992, to Lifeline Therapeutics, Inc. in
October 2004, and to Lifevantage Corporation in November 2006.
16
On October 26, 2004, we acquired approximately 81% of the outstanding common stock of Lifeline
Nutraceuticals Corporation (Lifeline Nutraceuticals or LNC), a privately-held Colorado
corporation, formed in July 2003 (the Reorganization). The Reorganization was treated as a
reverse merger for accounting purposes. In the Reorganization:
|
|
|
We issued 15,385,110 shares of our common stock (representing about 94% of our
outstanding common stock after the Reorganization) to eleven persons in exchange for
their ownership interest in Lifeline Nutraceuticals. |
|
|
|
|
We agreed to exchange $240,000 in new promissory notes for a like amount of
convertible debt obligations of Lifeline Nutraceuticals. |
|
|
|
|
We agreed to exchange $559,000 in new promissory notes for a like amount of bridge
loan note obligations of Lifeline Nutraceuticals. |
As a result of the Reorganization described above, LifeVantage owned 81% of the outstanding
common stock of Lifeline Nutraceuticals. Subsequent to the Reorganization, in March 2005 we
completed the acquisition of the remaining 19% minority shareholder interest in Lifeline
Nutraceuticals. LifeVantage currently owns 100% of the common stock of Lifeline Nutraceuticals.
As a result of the Reorganization, our fiscal year end became June 30. LNC developed and holds the
intellectual property rights to Protandim®.
Our Product
We developed our product, Protandim®, a proprietary blend of ingredients that has (through
studies on animals and humans) demonstrated the ability to induce production multiple protective
enzymes including SOD and CAT, in brain, liver, and blood, the primary battlefields for oxidative
stress. Protandim® is intended to combat oxidative stress to the human body by inducing the
production of SOD and CAT. Oxidative stress refers to the cellular and tissue damage caused by
chemically reactive oxygen radicals formed as a natural consequence of cellular metabolism.
Oxidative stress is widely believed to play a key role in the aging process, and the bodys
defenses against oxidative stress and free radicals decrease with age. Protandim® is marketed as a
dietary supplement, as defined in Section 3 of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of
1994 (DSHEA), codified as § 201(ff) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) (21
U.S.C. § 321(ff)). The name Protandim® is
derived from promoting the tandem co-regulation of the bodys antioxidant enzymes including
SOD and CAT. Protandim® and the related intellectual property are held by our wholly-owned
subsidiary Lifeline Nutraceuticals Corporation.
Oxidative stress results from the fact that we breathe air and utilize oxygen to generate
energy. A small percentage of the oxygen we utilize generates toxic oxygen free radicals that
damage the cells and tissues of the human body and consequently negatively impact our general
health. Oxidative stress refers to the cellular and tissue damage caused by chemically reactive
oxygen radicals formed as a natural consequence of cellular metabolism. These reactive oxygen
species (ROS) and free radicals can be elevated under a wide variety of conditions, including
radiation, UV light, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, certain medical conditions such as
neurodegenerative diseases and diabetes, and advancing age.
Elevated ROS levels inflict structural damage to nucleic acid, lipid and carbohydrate and
protein components of cells, thereby directly contributing to or exacerbating tissue dysfunction,
disease, and age-related debilitation. Normally, cellular antioxidant enzymes serve to inactivate
ROS and maintain their levels at those compatible with normal cell function. Important among these
enzymes are SOD and CAT. However, the levels of these protective antioxidant enzymes decrease with
age and also decrease in a number of disease conditions.
SOD is the bodys most effective natural antioxidant. SOD works in conjunction with CAT, and
under some circumstances, the balance may be important. A by-product of SODs potent antioxidant
activity is hydrogen peroxide, a dangerous substance that needs to be subsequently converted into
water and oxygen by CAT. Together, these two enzymes constitute the first line of defense and
repair for the body. Scientists have long realized that increasing levels of SOD and CAT is the
key to fighting oxidative stress, disease, and aging.
The role of oxidative stress in the body is very significant, as illustrated by the following
excerpts from a recent scientific journal article:
Oxidative damage is, if not the key factor, certainly a major factor in Alzheimer Disease. As
such, therapeutic modalities encompassing antioxidants may be an effective approach to the
treatment of neurodegenerative diseases and delay the aging process.
...it is clear that oxidative damage is not simply a byproduct or end product of neuronal
degenerative process but, more likely, the direct initiation factor in neurodegeneration.
Alzheimer Disease (AD) affects ...4 million diseased persons in the United States and 18 million
worldwide... AD affects 10-15% of individuals 65 years old and up, and up to 47% of individuals
over the age of 80.
17
A wide range of major diseases closely related to free radical damage, such as cancer,
heart/artery disease, essential hypertension, AD, cataracts, diabetes, Parkinsons disease,
arthritis and inflammatory disease, as well as aging itself, are now believed to be caused in part
or entirely by free radical damage.

Protandim® is a unique antioxidant therapy. The patented dietary supplement increases the
bodys natural antioxidant protection by inducing the production of naturally occurring protective
enzymes, including SOD and CAT. Oxidative stress occurs as a person ages, when subjected to
environmental stresses, or as an associated factor in certain illnesses. Thiobarbituric
acid-reacting substances (TBARS) are laboratory markers for oxidative stress in the body. Data
from a scientific study, sponsored by LifeVantage, shows in men and women that after 30 days of
taking Protandim®, the level of circulating TBARS decreased an average of 40 percent. With
continued use, the decrease was maintained at 120 days. For more information, please visit our
website at www.protandim.com; however, information found on our website is not incorporated by
reference into this Prospectus. Our web site address is included in this Prospectus as an inactive

Our Business Model
The primary manufacturing, fulfillment, and shipping components of our business are outsourced
to companies we believe possess a high degree of expertise. One advantage of outsourcing is a more
direct correlation of the costs we incur to our
level of product sales versus the relatively high fixed costs of building our own
infrastructure to accomplish these same tasks. Another advantage of this structure is to minimize
our commitment of resources to human capital required to manage these operational components
successfully. Outsourcing also provides additional capacity without significant advance notice and
often at an incremental price lower than the unit prices for the base service.
Manufacturing. We retained The Chemins Company of Colorado Springs, Colorado (Chemins) to
produce Protandim® under a contract manufacturing agreement dated February 2004 and amended January
17, 2005. We paid Chemins a deposit of $1,190,000 in Third Quarter of fiscal year 2005 to procure
sufficient raw materials to manufacture one million bottles of Protandim®, to acquire packing and
shipping materials and to commence the manufacturing and packaging process for 500,000 bottles of
Protandim®. The deposit with Chemins is reduced as product is sold. As of June 30, 2006, the
Companys deposit with Chemins was $555,301 and as of June 30, 2007, the deposit was $388,791.
Chemins delivers product to us based on our purchase orders. Through June 30, 2007, Chemins
had shipped or delivered approximately 361,000 bottles of Protandim® to our fulfillment
center and retail distributors. As of June 30, 2007, an additional 139,000 bottles remain to be
shipped from the initial 500,000-bottle order.
Through June 30, 2007, we have paid Chemins approximately $2,115,000 for the above delivered
bottles, which includes the deposit for the purchase of raw materials and packaging materials for a
total of one million bottles of Protandim®. An additional and approximate $485,000 will
be paid to Chemins for the manufacturing and packaging of the remaining product.
Chemins has significant experience in manufacturing dietary supplements. Its plant complies
with the current good manufacturing practices (cGMP) for foods in general. On August 18, 2007,
we were notified that Chemins was sold to NexGen Pharma/Anabolic Laboratories (NexGen), which has
operations in California, Arizona and Missouri. NexGen, which follows strict cGMP regulations and
is one of the leading contract manufacturers in the country, will continue to provide manufacturing
services and expertise to the Company.
Marketing. We market Protandim® through print advertising as well as electronic
marketing efforts. In June 2005, the Company and Protandim® were discussed on a
nationally-televised news program. We also regularly train and educate customer service
representatives to correctly and appropriately represent the product to consumers. We have an
internal sales/marketing group consisting of four full-time employees.
Sales. Protandim® is sold direct to consumers through telephone and web site orders, and
through retailers including General Nutrition Distribution, LP (GNC), CVS/pharmacy, Super
Supplements, drugstore.com, Vitamin Shoppe, Vitamin Cottage, Akins Natural Foods Markets, and
Chamberlins Natural Foods Markets. For retail customers, the Company analyzes its contracts to
determine the appropriate treatment for its recognition of revenue on a customer by customer basis.
18
In July 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with GNC for the sale of Protandim®.
Among other terms of the agreement, sales are subject to a provision whereby the seller and buyer
agree that all products shall be sold on a sale or return basis and product can be returned by
GNC for a full refund. The GNC Vendor Handbook pledges a 100-percent guarantee by GNC to the
purchasers of its products and expects vendors to do the same. In July 2006, the Company began
the recognition of revenue under the agreement with GNC due to the accumulation of historical data.
The Company recognizes revenue and its related costs when it obtains sufficient information to
reasonably estimate the amount of future returns. Accordingly, since July 2006, the Company
recognizes revenue associated with sales to GNC when the product is sold by the distributor with an
allowance for future returns based on historical product return information. Prior to July 2006,
all revenue and related costs from GNC were deferred.
In July 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with CVS/pharmacy (CVS) for the sale of
Protandim® throughout the CVS store network. Among the terms of the agreement, one-half
of the payment for all orders is withheld by CVS until certain sell-through parameters are met. As
of June 30, 2007, approximately $358,000 has been withheld by CVS. Since the Company does not have
sufficient history with CVS to reasonably estimate the sell-through of Protandim® within
the CVS store network, 50% of the revenue and related cost has been deferred under the agreement
with CVS. The Company will recognize deferred revenue and related cost of sales under the
agreement with CVS when it obtains sufficient sell-through information to reasonably estimate the
amount of future returns. The Company has entered into discussions with CVS for the return of a
portion of the unsold Protandim® inventory at CVS.
We accept orders for our product through the Companys product website and an internal
customer service department utilizing a toll-free number. The website and customer service
department direct shipping orders to United Parcel Service (UPS), our fulfillment center, where
orders are filled and shipped either by UPS or by United States Postal Service (USPS). UPS
offers package tracking by toll-free number or online so that our customers or our customer service
department can determine the disposition of a shipment of our product that did not make it to the
customer.
We offer a toll-free number to our customers to order product or ask questions. Our customer
service representatives answer customer calls and place orders in the Companys web order
processing system. The customer service representatives receive extensive training and are
particularly adept at up-selling customers our auto-ship purchasing option, which is attractive
to us as our this option allows us to realize recurring revenue on a monthly basis.
It is our desire to serve our customers directly concerning sales orders and issues or
questions they may have with our product. Our customer service representatives are available to
respond to our customers needs, answer questions, track packages, provide refunds, and process
sales orders.
The operational backbone of the Company is our web order processing system, Heavy Metal -
Business Software for e-Commerce, which we developed with the services of Make-A-Store, Inc.
(MAS). The MAS system we have developed accepts and authorizes credit card submissions for both
online sales order requests as well as telephone order sales. Upon authorization, the MAS system
interacts with the operational system at UPS, notifying the fulfillment center of sales shipping
needs. The operational system at UPS responds to MAS when the shipment of the product has
occurred, allowing MAS to capture the cost of the shipment from the customers credit card. MAS
is maintained on an array of servers, with load balancers, firewalls, and database server backups
at MAS secure hosted facility. This facility provides a full-service, managed hosting environment
with approximately 30,000 square feet of total space, redundant uninterruptible power supply
systems, generator backup, VESPA detection systems, closed circuit monitoring of all areas and
entrances, card key access, 24 hour manned security, redundant a/c systems, and multi-redundant
fiber optic access to the internet.
We began generating revenues from the sale of Protandim® during the last six months of fiscal
2005. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2005, 2006 and 2007, we generated revenues of $2,353,795,
$7,165,819 and $5,050,988 respectively. We commenced sales of Protandim® in February 2005. For the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, we incurred a net loss of $5,822,397; for the fiscal year ended
July 30, 2006, we incurred a let loss of $2,734,501; and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007,
we incurred a net loss of $3,693,578. We have expended in excess of $20,700,000 in research and
development activities and overhead expenses since the incorporation of Lifeline Nutraceuticals in
July 2003.
Research and Development
The majority of our time, effort, and financial resources have been dedicated toward the
continuing research and development of our intellectual property and the development of Protandim®.
As of July 10, 2007, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) granted a patent to
the Protandim® formula. In our fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, we spent about $37,933 in
company-sponsored research and development, and subsequently spent $114,163 and $245,561 in fiscal
years 2006 and 2007, respectively. Several research and development projects involving Protandim®
are currently ongoing with several institutions including the University of Colorado at Denver
Health Science Center (UCDHSC).

We believe that the growth in the supplement market is driven by a number of factors, including:
|
|
|
increased awareness of the health benefits of dietary supplements; |
|
|
|
|
a trend toward preventive health care; |
|
|
|
|
an increase in the number of older Americans; and |
|
|
|
|
health care consumers interest in managing their own health needs. |

Target Market
In April 2007, we analyzed the Protandim® direct customer base to profile our customers. As a
result of this study, we found that the Protandim® direct customers tend to be college educated, 45
to 74 years old, have a household income of over $75,000, own a home, reside in the coastal areas,
and have a net worth of over $250,000.
This profile is very similar to the Protandim® target market: the health and wellness
or core wellness market segment. This segment fits the profile of the baby boomer market, but it
is more specifically focused on those that care about their health and have a tendency and the
means to do something about it, and includes some people that are older and younger than the baby
boomers.
Just under 11,000 Americans turn 50 every day, and Americans now expect longer life-spans and
a better quality of life. Americans over the age of 50 represent over $525 billion per year in
direct healthcare spending. These individuals are time crunched, creating high expectations for
convenience, balance, and control.
Women in the core wellness segment tend to be proactive about their health, and do things to
lower health risks and prevent disease. They also tend to be engaged in a healthy, active
lifestyle, consume organic or natural foods, are positively pre-disposed to and/or are currently
taking natural supplements, and they are more in tune with their body and do not wait until they
get sick before they adjust any aspect of their lifestyle. Men are also part of this group and
mens attitude toward aging is rapidly changing. In the past men were content to let the aging
process happen, but now men are showing a greater willingness to be proactive about maintaining
good health.
Pricing
LifeVantage has established the direct sale price of Protandim® at $49.95 for a months supply
of thirty caplets. Price discounts are sometimes used for monthly auto-ship options and other
promotions. Products sold through the retail channels are sold to retailers at a discount.
Competition
Although we believe that Protandim® reflects a unique product in the nutraceutical industry,
there are a number of potential Protandim® competitors.
Vitamin C, vitamin E, Coenzyme Q-10, and other sources of exogenous antioxidants are often
considered competitors of Protandim®. We do not consider these substances to be competitors
because they are oxygen radical scavengers and are not enzymatic, meaning they do not work within
the cells of the human body. Our research indicates that Protandim® generates intra-cellular
antioxidants, such as SOD and CAT, within the cells of the body. Oxygen is consumed by the
mitochondria, which is where oxidative stress is at its worst. We believe that the bodys internal
antioxidant enzymes, produced at homeostatic levels, provide a better defense against oxidative
stress than exogenous sources of antioxidants.
There are many companies performing research into antioxidants, and these companies are
intensely competitive. At least one entity is currently marketing a direct competitor to
Protandim®, and it is highly likely that one or more additional entities will develop, purchase or
license from a third party, competitive products along the lines of our focus. Thus, we expect
that we will be subject to significant competition that will intensify as these markets develop.
Many of our actual and potential competitors have longer operating histories and possess
greater name recognition, larger customer bases, and significantly greater financial, technical,
and marketing resources than we do. As the dietary supplement industry grows and changes,
retailers may align themselves with larger suppliers who may be more financially stable, market a
broad portfolio of products or offer better customer service. Competition with companies of this
nature could materially adversely affect our business, operating results, or financial condition.
Product Liability and Other Insurance
We have product liability insurance coverage for Protandim® that we believe is adequate to
protect us. We have also obtained commercial property and liability coverage, as well as
directors and officers liability insurance.
Intellectual Property, Patents, and Royalty Agreements
Protandim® is a proprietary, patented dietary supplement formulation for enhancing
antioxidant enzymes including SOD and CAT. The patent and patent applications protecting this
formulation are held by our wholly-owned subsidiary, Lifeline Nutraceuticals.
21
We use commercially reasonable efforts to protect our intellectual property and license rights
through patent protection, trade secrets, and contractual protections, and intend to continue to
develop a strong brand identity in the Protandim® mark. Although we do not currently
license our intellectual property to any third parties, we may choose to provide such licensing
arrangements in the future to provide a potential new revenue source.
Our intellectual property is covered, in part, by one U.S. patent No. U.S. 7,241,461 issued on
July 10, 2007 and two U.S. utility patent applications on file with the U.S. Patent and Trademark
Office. A PCT International Patent Application is also on file. The patent and these patent
applications claim the benefit of priority of seven U.S. provisional patent applications and are
directed to compositions, methods, and methods of manufacture. The earliest filing date for this
family of patent applications is March 23, 2004. The term of the granted patent is through March
23, 2025. The expected term of the outstanding patent applications is through March 23, 2025
assuming there are no term extensions.
PROTANDIM® is a registered trademark in the United States, Canada and Taiwan. We
have applied for protection of the PROTANDIM® trademark in Japan, South Korea, China,
and European Community. We do not know with reasonable certainty the timing of the final grant or
denial of the applications for registration of the PROTANDIM® mark in these other
countries.
We have applied for the trademark LIFEVANTAGE in the United States, Canada and through the
World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). We have registered the mark LIFEVANTAGE through
WIPO in Australia, China, Japan and Korea.
Governmental Approval and Regulations
The formulation, manufacturing, packaging, labeling, and advertising of Protandim®
are subject to regulation by federal agencies, including the Food and Drug Administration (FDA),
the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), and also by various state and local agencies. Although the
Company is not currently required to obtain FDA or FTC approval to sell Protandim®, the
FDA, pursuant to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), which includes the Dietary
Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA), primarily regulates the formulation, manufacturing,
packaging, and labeling of the product, while the FTC primarily regulates the advertising and
marketing of the product.
Protandim® is marketed as a dietary supplement as defined in the DSHEA. The
DSHEA is intended to promote access to safe, quality dietary supplements, and information about
dietary supplements. The U.S. Congress has amended the FFDCA several times with respect to dietary
supplements, in particular by the DSHEA. In 1994, the DSHEA established a new framework governing
the composition and labeling of dietary supplements. With respect to composition, the DSHEA
defined dietary supplements as including vitamins, minerals, herbs, other botanicals, amino
acids, and other dietary substances for human use to supplement the diet, as well as concentrates,
constituents, extracts, or combinations of such dietary ingredients. Under the DSHEA, a dietary
supplement that contains a new dietary ingredient (defined as a dietary ingredient not marketed
in the United States before October 15, 1994) must have a history of human use or other evidence of
safety establishing that it is reasonably expected by the manufacturer to be safe prior to
marketing the product. The manufacturer of a dietary supplement must notify the FDA at least 75
days before marketing products containing new dietary ingredients and provide the FDA with the
information upon which the manufacturer based its conclusion that the product has a reasonable
expectation of safety. The FDA may not accept the evidence of safety for any new dietary
ingredient, and the FDAs refusal to accept such evidence could prevent the marketing of such
dietary ingredients.
FDA Regulations Applicable to the Formulation, Manufacturing, Packaging, and Labeling of
Protandim®
The DSHEA permits statements of nutritional support to be included in labeling for dietary
supplements without FDA pre-approval. Such statements may describe how a particular dietary
ingredient may affect the structure, function, or general well-being of the body or the mechanism
of action by which dietary ingredients affect the foregoing. Such statements may not state that a
dietary supplement will diagnose, cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent a disease unless such claim has
been reviewed and approved by the FDA, either as a health claim or as a claim for an approved
drug. A company that uses a statement of nutritional support in labeling must possess evidence
substantiating that the statement is truthful and not misleading. The FDA may determine that a
particular statement of nutritional support that a company wants to use is an illegal claim for an
unapproved new drug or an unauthorized version of a health claim. Such a determination might
prevent a company from making the claim.
The DSHEA also permits certain third-party literature, for example a reprint of a
peer-reviewed scientific publication, to be used in connection with the sale of a dietary
supplement to consumers without the literature being subject to regulation as labeling. However,
such literature must not be false or misleading, the literature may not promote a particular
manufacturer, or brand of dietary supplement and it must include a balanced view of the available
scientific information on the subject matter, among other requirements. While we exercise care in
the dissemination of all such third party literature in connection with Protandim®, we
cannot assure you that all third party literature would be found by the FDA to satisfy all of these
requirements. If we fail to satisfy any of these applicable requirements, the FDA could prevent
the use of certain literature and subject Protandim® to regulation as an unapproved new
drug. We could also be subject to adverse actions by other third parties.
22
We are subject to the risk that the FDA may take enforcement action against us for one or more
violations of the FFDCA. We have to comply with the FFDCA, including the DSHEA, and all applicable
FDA regulations. Any allegations of non-compliance may result in time-consuming and expensive
defense of our activities. An enforcement action could include a warning letter that informs us of
alleged violations, such as selling a misbranded product, an adulterated product, or an unapproved
new drug. Although we would be entitled to take corrective action in response to any such warning
letter, the fact that a warning letter had been issued to us from the FDA would be made available
to the public. That information could affect our relationships with our investors, vendors, and
consumers. The FDA could also initiate many additional types of enforcement actions that would be
far more detrimental to our business than the issuance of a warning letter, including actions for
product seizure, inspection, and/or criminal prosecution. Because we are not required to submit
all product labeling to the FDA before we sell our dietary supplement, we cannot give any assurance
that FDA enforcement action will not occur.
FTC Regulations Applicable to the Advertising and Marketing of Protandim®
Advertising and marketing of products is subject to regulation by the FTC under the Federal
Trade Commission Act (FTC Act). Section 5 of the FTC Act prohibits unfair methods of competition
and unfair or deceptive acts or practices in or affecting commerce. Section 12 of the FTC Act
provides that disseminating any false advertisement pertaining to drugs or foods, which would
include dietary supplements, is an unfair or deceptive act or practice. Under the FTCs
Substantiation Doctrine, an advertiser is required to have a reasonable basis for all express and
implied product claims before the claims are made. Failure to adequately substantiate claims may
be considered either deceptive or unfair practices. Pursuant to this FTC requirement, we are
required to have adequate substantiation for all material advertising claims made for our products.
The FTC routinely reviews advertising and websites to identify significant questionable
advertising claims and practices, and competitors often inform the FTC when they believe other
competitors are violating the FTC Act. If the FTC initiates an investigation to determine the
support for a claim, the FTC can initiate pre-complaint discovery that may be nonpublic in nature.
Such an investigation may (i) be very expensive to defend, (ii) be lengthy, and (iii) result in one
or more adverse rulings by a court, administrative law judge, or in a publicly disclosed consent
decree.
Our telemarketing activities must comply with the FTCs Telemarketing Sales Rule, 16 CFR Part
310, and additional telemarketing and marketing statutes and regulations of the FTC and of various
states. Because these activities, in general, are in the public eye and because it may be
difficult to ensure compliance with these laws and regulations by the individuals who actually make
and receive such calls, there is a risk that we could be the subject of investigation and other
enforcement activities that may be brought by the FTC and state agencies. We regularly train and
educate telemarketing representatives to correctly and appropriately represent our product.
In addition to federal regulation in the U. S., each state has enacted its own Little FTC
Act to regulate sales and advertising and each state has enacted its own food and drug laws. We
may receive requests to supply information regarding our sales or advertising to state regulatory
agencies. We remain subject to the risk that, in one or more of our present or future markets, our
products, sales, and advertising could be found not to be in compliance with applicable laws and
regulations. If we fail to comply with these laws and regulations, it could have a material
adverse effect on our business in a particular market or in general. In addition, these laws and
regulations could affect our ability to enter new markets.
The Bioterrorism Act
In June 2002, Congress enacted the Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and
Response Act of 2002 (the Bioterrorism Act). The Bioterrorism Act contained new requirements
with regard to the sale and importation of food products in the United States:
|
1. |
|
Mandatory registration with the FDA of all food manufacturers.
|
|
|
2. |
|
Prior notice to regulators of inbound food shipments. |
|
|
3. |
|
Recordkeeping requirements, and grant of access to the FDA of applicable
records. |
|
|
4. |
|
Grant of detention authority to the FDA of food products in certain
circumstances. |
Under the record keeping requirements, LifeVantage is considered to be a nontransporter of
Protandim® and must maintain certain records required of nontransporters. We are in the
process of ensuring that we keep all appropriate records required by the Bioterrorism Act.
Potential FDA and Other Regulation
We could become subject to additional laws or regulations administered by the FDA, FTC, or by
other federal, state, or local regulatory authorities, to the repeal of laws or regulations that we
consider favorable, such as the DSHEA, or to more stringent interpretations of current laws or
regulations. For example, the FDA is currently developing guidance for the industry to clarify the
FDAs interpretation of the new dietary ingredient notification requirements, which may raise new
and significant regulatory barriers for new
23
dietary ingredients. Increased FDA enforcement could
lead the FDA to challenge dietary ingredients already on the market as illegal under the FFDCA
because of the failure to file a new dietary ingredient notification.
In addition, the FDA has issued final rules for current good manufacturing practices (cGMP)
regulations for the dietary supplement industry. The final cGMPs require quality control
provisions that are similar to cGMPs for drugs and over-the-counter products. Our contract
manufacturer, NexGen, is a medium sized company. Medium sized companies have been granted two years
to comply with the new cGMP requirements. NexGen is on track to meet the requirements for dietary
supplements within the two year period.
Employees
As of June 30, 2007, we had thirteen employees, including two officers, twelve full-time
employees, and one part time employee, all of whom are leased through Administaff. We outsource
our manufacturing and distribution operations to minimize the number of employees we have. We may
in the future hire additional employees for marketing, customer service and accounting.
PROPERTY
Corporate Office
In August 2005, we entered a 36-month lease for our current executive offices in Greenwood
Village, Colorado. Pursuant to the agreement, we paid a $35,688 prepayment of rent for 5,736
square feet. Monthly rent payments are as follows: $9,560 from December 2005 through July 2006;
$9,799 from August 2006 through July 2007; and $10,038 from August 2007 through July 2008. We also
tendered a $30,144 refundable security deposit, provided we do not breach the covenants set forth
in the lease.
Warehouse Facility
We have a warehouse facility agreement with UPS, pursuant to which we lease warehouse space in
their climate-controlled warehouse in Denver, Colorado pursuant to a renewable agreement with the
initial term ending in December 2007.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The statements contained in this report that are not purely historical are forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding our expectations, hopes,
intentions, or strategies regarding the future. Forward-looking statements include: statements
regarding future products or product development; statements regarding future selling, general and
administrative costs and research and development spending, and our product development strategy;
statements regarding future capital expenditures and financing requirements; and similar forward
looking statements. It is important to note that our actual results could differ materially from
those in such forward-looking statements.
Overview
This managements discussion and analysis discusses the financial condition and results of
operations of LifeVantage and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lifeline Nutraceuticals Corporation
(Lifeline Nutraceuticals).
At present, we have only a single product, Protandim®. We developed Protandim®, a proprietary
blend of ingredients that has (through studies on animals and humans) demonstrated the ability to
enhance antioxidant enzymes including Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) in brain, liver, and blood, the
primary battlefields for oxidative stress. Protandim® is designed to induce the human
body to produce more of its own catalytic antioxidants, and to decrease the process of lipid
peroxidation, an indicator of oxidative stress. Each component of Protandim® was selected for its ability to
meet these criteria. Low, safe doses of each component help prevent unwanted additional effects
that might be associated with one or another of the components, none of which have been seen with
the formulation.
We sell Protandim® directly to individuals as well as to retail stores. We began
significant sales of Protandim® in the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2005. In June
2005, the Company and Protandim® were discussed on a nationally televised news program,
which led to a substantial increase in sales. Since June 2005, sales of Protandim® have
declined on a monthly basis as we have not received continuing similar national exposure.
Protandim® sales totaled $5,050,988 for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007.
24
Our research efforts to date have been focused on investigating various aspects and
consequences of the imbalance of oxidants and antioxidants, an abnormality which is a central
underlying feature in many disorders. We intend to continue our research, development, and
documentation of the efficacy of Protandim® to provide credibility to the market. We
also anticipate undertaking research, development, testing, and licensing efforts to be able to
introduce additional products in the future, although we cannot offer any assurance that we will be
successful in this endeavor.
The primary manufacturing, fulfillment, and shipping components of our business are outsourced
to companies we believe possess a high degree of expertise. Through outsourcing we hope to achieve
a more direct correlation between the costs we incur and our level of product sales, versus the
relatively high fixed costs of building our own infrastructure to accomplish these same tasks.
Outsourcing also helps to minimize our commitment of resources to human capital required to manage
these operational components successfully. Outsourcing also provides additional capacity without
significant advance notice and often at an incremental price lower than the unit prices for the
base service.
Our expenditures during fiscal years ended 2007 and 2006 consisted primarily of marketing
expenses, operating expenses, payroll and professional fees, customer service, research and
development and product manufacturing for the marketing and sale of Protandim®.
In January 2007, we began a turn-around strategy to reduce our cash drain by cutting spending
and lowering our operational expenses to a more appropriate level. This effort has been successful
in slowing down the cash drain of the Company.
An additional part of this turnaround strategy has been to reduce the rapid and consistent
erosion of our direct sales, which has continued since our direct sales first began in the Fourth
Quarter of fiscal year ended June 30, 2005. Through several new promotions and new customer
service retention and recapture programs, we expect to reduce direct sales erosion experienced
during fiscal 2007.
We also began to focus on building the sales and re-establishing positive sales momentum. In
this regard, we hired a director of e-commerce in May 2007 to build the e-business, and we have
taken steps that we believe will help to increase sales, including the following: the addition of
natural products retailers, entering the direct response TV market and sports market
representation. In addition to these sales initiatives, we also are working on developing and
improving investor relations.
Recent Developments
2007 Private Placement
In September 2007, we commenced a private placement offering and raised an aggregate of
$1,490,000 through the issuance of units each consisting of a Convertible Debenture with a
principal amount of $10,000 and a warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at $0.30 per
share (the Offering). Aspenwood Capital acted as our placement agent in the Offering. The
Convertible Debentures bear interest at 8% per annum, have a term of three years, and are
convertible into the Companys Common Stock during their term at $.20 per share and at maturity at
the lower of $0.20 per share or the average trading price for the 10 days immediately prior to the
maturity date.
Offer to Re-Price 2005 Private Placement Warrants
Effective June 28, 2007, we offered to reprice warrants to purchase 6,001,866 shares of our
common stock issued to investors pursuant to our 2005 private placement offering. These warrants
were originally exercisable at $2.00 and $2.50 per share by the warrant holder and may be repriced
to be exercisable at $0.30 per share upon the execution of a warrant amendment by the Company and
the warrant holder. As of November 30, 2007, holders of warrants to purchase 2,893,674 shares of
our common stock issued in the private placement offering have executed a warrant amendment, and
warrants to purchase 2,893,674 shares of our common stock have been repriced to be exercisable at
$.30 per share. As of November 30, 2007, warrants to purchase 35,000 shares of our common stock
have been exercised at $0.30 per share.
Departure of Chief Executive Officer
Effective August 31, 2007, James J. Krejcis positions as Chief Executive Officer and as Vice
Chairman and a member of our Board of Directors terminated. The Company has begun a search for a
new Chief Executive Officer, but has not identified Mr. Krejcis replacement at this time.
The Chemins Company
On August 18, 2007, we were notified that Chemins, the Companys contract manufacturer, was
sold to NexGen Pharma/Anabolic Laboratories (NexGen), which has operations in California, Arizona
and Missouri. NexGen, which follows strict cGMP regulations and
25
is one of the leading contract manufacturers in the country, will continue to provide manufacturing services and expertise to the
Company. NexGen will continue to provide services under the terms of our existing agreement with
Chemins.
Resignation of Chief Financial Officer
Effective February 16, 2007, Gerald J. Houston resigned as our Chief Financial Officer and
from the positions of Secretary and Treasurer. Mr. Houston provided the Board of Directors and the
Company with consulting services through June 15, 2007.
Restatement
On November 10, 2006, in response to comments raised by the Staff of the SEC concerning our
registration statement filed on Form SB-2 and our valuation of goodwill and intangible assets on
our financial statements, and to ensure that our financial reporting remains in accordance with
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, our Board of Directors concluded that it was appropriate
to restate our annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. The
restatement resulted in adjustments to certain amounts reported in our financial statements issued
for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005. These adjustments affected the presentation and
classification of amounts and costs relating to certain patents, goodwill, and additional paid-in
capital on our balance sheet. In resolving the above items with the SEC, we also adopted a revenue
recognition policy with respect to sales of our product to distributors that have a right of
return. Pursuant to this policy, we utilize the sell-through amounts from the distributor to the
consumer to recognize revenue for such sales, and apply an allowance for product returns.
Year ended June 30, 2007 Compared to the Year ended June 30, 2006
Sales. We generated net sales of approximately $5,051,000 during the year ended June 30, 2007
and approximately $7,165,800 during the year ended June 30, 2006 from the sale of our product,
Protandim®.
In June 2005, the Company and Protandim® were discussed nationally on Primetime, which led to
substantial fiscal year 2006 sales. Since June 2005, sales have declined on a monthly basis as the
Company has not received similar national exposure. We sold approximately 118,000 units of
Protandim® for the year ended June 30, 2007, and approximately 146,600 units in the year
ended June 30, 2006.
Gross Margin. Cost of sales were approximately $1,022,800 for the year ended June 30, 2007,
and approximately $1,491,300 for the year ended June 30, 2006, resulting in a gross margin of
approximately $4,028,200, or 80%, and approximately $5,674,500, or 79%, respectively. The slight
increase in margin for the year ended June 30, 2007 is due to the recognition of slightly higher
margin retail sales during the year.
Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 were
approximately $7,685,100 as compared to operating expenses of approximately $8,543,500 for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. Operating expenses consist of marketing and customer service
expenses, general and administrative expenses, research and development, and depreciation and
amortization expenses. Cost containment programs initiated during fiscal year 2007 contributed
toward the decrease in operating expenses.
Marketing and Customer Service Expenses. Marketing and customer service expense decreased
from approximately $4,259,700 in fiscal year 2006 to approximately $2,991,200 in fiscal year 2007.
This decrease was due to cost containment programs and a more targeted approach to marketing and
advertising.
General and Administrative Expenses. Our general and administrative expense increased from
approximately $3,904,400 in fiscal year 2006 to $4,355,800 in fiscal year 2007. The increase
resulted primarily from the recognition of non-cash
compensation expense from the issuance of options under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123(R)), which was adopted during
fiscal year 2007.
Research and Development. Our research and development expenditures increased from
approximately $114,200 in fiscal year 2006 to approximately $245,700 in fiscal year 2007 as a
result of an increase in our research, development, and documentation of the efficacy of
Protandim® for potential consumers.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased from
approximately $265,300 in fiscal year 2006 to approximately $92,400 in fiscal year 2007. This
decrease was due to the final amortization of a non-compete agreement during fiscal year 2006.
Net Other Income and Expense. We recognized net other income of approximately $134,500 in
fiscal year 2006 as compared to net other expense of approximately $36,700 in fiscal year 2007.
This change is largely the result of the write down of assets related to the legacy shopping cart
system during the year as the new shopping cart system was implemented.
26
Net Loss. As a result of lower revenues and because of the recognition of additional stock
related compensation pursuant to SFAS 123(R), our net loss of approximately $2,734,500 for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2006 increased to a net loss of approximately $3,693,600 for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 2007.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2007 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2006
Sales. We generated net sales from the sale of our product, Protandim®, of approximately
$807,300 during the three months ended September 30, 2007 and approximately $2,075,500 during the
three months ended September 30, 2006.
The Company began to recognize revenue from its distributor sales, where right of return
exited for product sold to the distributor, during the three months ended September 30, 2006.
Prior to this, the Company deferred 100% of its distributor revenue where right of return existed.
Approximately, $748,000 of the $2,075,500 of net sales during the three months ended September 30,
2006 related to revenue previously deferred in earlier periods.
Gross Margin. Our gross profit percentage for the three month periods ended September 30, 2007
and 2006 was 78% and 82%, respectively. The decrease in margin is due to the recognition of higher
margin distributor sales during the three months ended September 30, 2006, associated with the
recognition of previously deferred distributor revenue.
Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the fiscal three months ended September
30, 2007 were approximately $930,100 as compared to operating expenses of approximately $2,535,600
for the three months ended September 30, 2006. Operating expenses consist of marketing and
customer service expenses, general and administrative expenses, research and development, and
depreciation and amortization expenses. Cost containment programs initiated during fiscal year 2007
contributed toward the decrease in operating expenses.
Marketing and Customer Service Expenses. Marketing and customer service expense decreased from
approximately $1,032,800 in the three months ended September 30, 2006 to approximately $274,400 in
the three months ended September 30, 2007. This decrease was due to cost containment programs and
a more targeted approach to marketing and advertising.
General and Administrative Expenses. Our general and administrative expense decreased from
approximately $1,407,600 in the three months ended September 30, 2006 to approximately $425,500 in
the three months ended September 30, 2007. The decrease is the result of lower stock related
compensation and reductions in staff. During the three months ended September 30, 2007, stock
related compensation was approximately $70,200 compared to approximately $523,900 during the three
months ended September 30, 2006.
Research and Development. Our research and development expenditures increased from
$65,700 in the three months ended September 30, 2006 to approximately $190,600 in the three months
ended September 30, 2007 as a result of additional research, development, and documentation of the
efficacy of Protandim®.
Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense increased from
approximately $29,400 during the three months ended September 30, 2006 to approximately $39,500 in
the three months ended September 30, 2007. This increase was due to the commencement of
amortization of patent costs for the U.S. patent granted on July 10, 2007.
Net Other Income and Expense. We recognized net other income of approximately $1,400 during
the three months ended September 30, 2007 as compared to net other income of approximately $15,400
during the three months ended September 30, 2006. This change is largely the result of decreased
interest income.
Net Loss. As a result of the cost containment programs described above offset by lower first
fiscal quarter 2008 revenue, the Companys net loss was approximately $(298,700) for the three
month period ended September 30, 2007 compared to net loss of approximately $(820,200) for the
three month period ended September 30, 2006.
Our ability to finance future operations will depend on our existing liquidity (discussed in
more detail below) and, ultimately, on our ability to generate additional revenues and profits from
operations. At this time, we believe that the Company has sufficient funds to operate our business
at its current level through June 30, 2008. However, even if we generate revenues at increasing
levels, the revenues generated may not be greater than the expenses we incur. Operating results
will depend on several factors, including the selling price of the product, the number of units of
product sold, the costs of manufacturing and distributing the product, the costs of marketing and
advertising, and other costs, including corporate overhead, which we may incur.
27
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary liquidity and capital resource requirements are to finance the cost of our planned
marketing efforts and the manufacture and sale of Protandim® and to pay our general and
administrative expenses. Our primary source of liquidity is cash flow from the sales of our
product.
At June 30, 2007, our available liquidity was approximately $161,000, including available cash
and cash equivalents and marketable securities. This represented a decrease of approximately
$3,076,000 from the approximately $3,237,000 in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as
of June 30, 2006. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, our net cash used by operating
activities was approximately $3,128,000 as compared to net cash used by operating activities of
approximately $916,000 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. The Companys cash used by
operating activities during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 increased primarily as a result of
lower sales than in the same period during the prior fiscal year.
At September 30, 2007, our available liquidity was approximately $1,142,900, including
available cash and cash equivalents. This represented an increase of approximately $982,100 from
the approximately $160,800 in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2007. During the three
months ended September 30, 2007, our net cash provided by operating activities was approximately
$42,500 as compared to net cash used by operating activities of approximately $(1,092,200) during
the three months ended September 30, 2006. The Companys cash used by operating activities during
the three month period ended September 30, 2007 decreased as a result of cost containment programs
implemented during third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2007.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, our net cash provided by investing activities was
approximately $3,063,000, primarily due to the sale and redemption of available-for-sale marketable
securities. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, we used approximately $3,260,000 in
investing activities, primarily due to the purchase of marketable securities available-for-sale.
During the three months ended September 30, 2007, our net cash used by investing activities
was approximately $27,200, due to the purchase of intangible assets. During the three months ended
September 30, 2006, our net cash provided by investing activities was approximately $400,600,
primarily due to the sale and redemption of marketable securities available-for-sale.
Cash used by financing activities during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 was approximately
$1,800, compared to approximately $1,200 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. Cash used in
financing activities during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006 was due to
payments made under a capital lease obligation.
Cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended September 30, 2007 was
approximately $966,800, compared to approximately $607,000 during the three months ended September
30, 2006. Cash provided from financing activities during the three month period ended September
30, 2007 was due to proceeds from the 2007 private placement, whereas cash provided from financing
activities during the three months ended September 30, 2006 was due to proceeds from margin debt.
At June 30, 2007, we had working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) of
approximately ($46,000), compared to working capital of approximately $2,254,000 at June 30, 2006.
The decrease in working capital was due to cash used in operating activities and our significant
operating losses we incurred.
At September 30, 2007, we had working capital (current assets minus current liabilities) of
approximately $704,300, compared to working capital of approximately $(46,200) at June 30, 2007.
The increase in working capital was due to the proceeds received from the Offering described below.
On September 26, 2007, the Company closed an offering of convertible debentures, which
resulted in net proceeds received by the Company of approximately $956,000 (Offering). Based on
the cost reduction initiatives that we have undertaken to conserve our cash resources and the net
proceeds received by the Company on September 26, 2007, we currently anticipate that
our cash resources will be sufficient to fund our anticipated working capital and capital
expenditure needs through at least June 30, 2008.
We base our spending in part on our expectations of future revenue levels from the sale of
Protandim®. If our revenue for a particular period is lower than expected, we will take
further steps to reduce our operating expenses accordingly. Through fiscal 2007, cash generated
from operations was insufficient to satisfy our long-term liquidity requirements, which led us to
seek additional financing. Additional financing may be dilutive to our existing shareholders. In an
effort to conserve our cash resources, we initiated reductions in personnel, consulting fees,
advertising, and other general and administrative expenses. These measures have reduced the scope
of our planned operations during the later part of fiscal 2007 by reducing our advertising budget
to promote Protandim®. By terminating our relationships with certain professional
service organizations responsible for operations and marketing, and bringing these tasks in-house,
we could experience adverse effects on our future financial performance.
28
We plan to use the proceeds received from the Offering to expand marketing efforts, scientific
studies, intellectual property protection and working capital in effort to grow direct to consumer
and retail revenue. Our cash resources, however, may run out sooner than expected if our future
revenue is lower than expected or our operating or other expenses are higher than expected. If we
are unable to increase revenues as planned, we may be required to further reduce the scope of our
planned operations, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results.
Critical Accounting Policies
We prepare our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. As such, we are required to make certain estimates,
judgments, and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based upon the information available.
These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods
presented. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Our significant accounting policies
are described in Note 2 to our financial statements. Certain of these significant accounting
policies require us to make difficult, subjective, or complex judgments or estimates. We consider
an accounting estimate to be critical if (1) the accounting estimate requires us to make
assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate was made,
and (2) changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, or use
of different estimates that we reasonably could have used in the current period, would have a
material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
There are other items within our financial statements that require estimation, but are not
deemed critical as defined above. Changes in estimates used in these and other items could have a
material impact on our financial statements. Management has discussed the development and
selection of these critical accounting estimates with our board of directors, and the audit
committee has reviewed the foregoing disclosure.
Allowances for Product Returns
We record allowances for product returns at the time we ship the product. We base these
accruals on the historical return rate since the inception of our selling activities, and the
specific historical return patterns of the product. Our return rate since the inception of selling
activities is approximately 2% of sales.
We offer a 30-day, money back unconditional guarantee to all customers. As of June 30, 2007,
our June 2007 shipments of approximately $254,000 were subject to the money back guarantee. We
replace returned product damaged during shipment wholly at our cost, which historically has been
negligible.
We monitor our return estimate on an ongoing basis and may revise the allowances to reflect
our experience. Our allowance for product returns was $112,600 on June 30, 2007, compared with
approximately $34,400 on June 30, 2006. To date, product expiration dates have not played any role
in product returns, and we do not expect they will in the future because it is unlikely that we
will ship product with an expiration date earlier than the latest allowable product return date.
Inventory Valuation
We state inventories at the lower of cost or market on a first-in first-out basis. We
maintain a reserve for inventory obsolescence and we base this reserve on assumptions about current
and future product demand, inventory whose shelf life has expired, and market conditions. We may
be required to make additional reserves in the event there is a change in any of these variables.
We recorded no reserves for obsolete inventory as of June 30, 2007 because our product and raw
materials have a shelf life of at least 3 years based upon testing performed quarterly in an
accelerated aging chamber at our manufacturers facility.
Revenue Recognition
We ship the majority of our product by United Parcel Service (UPS) and receive payment for
those shipments in the form of credit card charges. Our return policy is to provide a 30-day money
back guarantee on orders placed by customers. After 30 days, we do not refund customers for
returned product. We have experienced monthly returns approximating 2% of sales. Sales revenue
and estimated returns are recorded when the merchandise is shipped because performance by us is
considered met when shipped by UPS.
We entered into an agreement with GNC for the sale of Protandim® beginning in July
2005, pursuant to which GNC has the right to return any and all product shipped to them, at any
time, for any reason. In July 2006, the Company began the recognition of revenue under the
agreement with GNC due to the accumulation of historical sell-through and return data. The Company
recognizes revenue and its related costs when it obtains sufficient information to reasonably
estimate the amount of future returns. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue associated with
sales to GNC when the product is sold by the distributor with an allowance for future returns based
on historical product return information. Prior to July 2006, all revenue and related costs from
GNC were deferred.
29
In July 2006, Lifevantage entered into an agreement with CVS/pharmacy (CVS) for the sale of
Protandim® throughout the CVS store network. Among the terms of the agreement, one-half
of the payment for all orders is withheld by CVS until certain sell-through parameters are met.
Since inception of the agreement, CVS has withheld approximately $358,000. Since the Company does
not have sufficient history with CVS to reasonably estimate the sell-through of
Protandim® within the CVS store network, 50% of the revenue and related cost under the
agreement with CVS has been deferred. The Company will recognize deferred revenue and related cost
of sales under the agreement with CVS when it obtains sufficient sell-through information to
reasonably estimate the amount of future returns. The Company has entered into discussions with CVS
for the return of a portion of the unsold Protandim® inventory at CVS.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, the Company commenced sales of
Protandim® to several specialty retailers. Revenue is recognized according to the terms
of each individual agreement. Where the right of return exists beyond 30 days, revenue and related
cost of sales is deferred until sufficient sell-through information is received to reasonably
estimate the amount of future returns.
The table below shows the effect of the change in the Companys deferred revenue and expense
by quarter through fiscal year ended June 30, 2007:

Intangible Assets Patent Costs
We review the carrying value of our patent costs periodically to determine whether the patents
have continuing value.

Stock-Based Compensation
We use the fair value approach to account for stock-based compensation in accordance with the
modified version of prospective application as prescribed by SFAS 123(R).
Research and Development Costs
We have expensed all of our payments related to research and development activities.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) 158, Employers
Accounting for Defined Benefit Pensions and Other Post-Retirement Plans (SFAS 158), was issued
by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and is effective for financial statements for
fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. SFAS 158 improves financial reporting by requiring an
employer to recognize the over funded or under funded status of a defined benefit postretirement
plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial
position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur
through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a
not-for-profit organization. SFAS 158 also improves financial reporting by requiring an employer
to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement or financial
position, with limited exceptions. We anticipate that SFAS 158 will not have a material impact on
our financial statements.
In February 2007, SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
LiabilitiesIncluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159), was issued by the FASB
and is effective as of the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that begins after November
15, 2007. SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain
other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities
with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets
and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS 159
is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with our Boards
long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments. We anticipate that SFAS
159 will not have a material impact on our financial statements.
Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (FIN) 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes, is effective for tax years beginning after December 15, 2006. FIN 48 addresses the
recognition and measurement of income tax positions using a more-likely-than-not (MLTN)
threshold, meaning there must be a more than 50% likelihood that a tax position taken would be
sustained, if challenged and considered by the highest court in the relevant jurisdiction.
We have reviewed other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and
do not believe any such pronouncements will have a material impact on our financial statements.

series. Dr. McCord has published articles in a number of scientific journals, including the New
England Journal of Medicine.
Independence of Board of Directors and Committees
Even though we are not a listed issuer and our shares are not traded on an exchange, in order
to determine whether the members of our Board of Directors are independent, the SEC rules require
that we use the definition of independence of a national securities exchange (like the New York
Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Stock Market) or national securities association when making this
determination. In determining the independence of the members of our Board of Directors, our Board
of Directors elected to use the definition of independence contained in NASDAQ Stock Market
(NASDAQ) listing requirements. As required under NASDAQ listing standards, a majority of the
members of a listed companys Board of Directors must qualify as independent, as affirmatively
determined by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors consults with the Companys counsel
to ensure that its determinations are consistent with all relevant securities and other laws and
regulations regarding the definition of independent, including those set forth in pertinent
listing standards of the NASDAQ as in effect time to time. Consistent with these considerations,
after review of all relevant transactions or relationships between each director, or any of his or
her family members, and the Company, its senior management and its independent auditors, our Board
of Directors affirmatively has determined that Dr. Crapo and Mr. Thompson are independent directors
within the meaning of the applicable NASDAQ listing standards. Mr. John Van Heuvelen, who
resigned from the Board of Directors on August 25, 2007, was also independent. Mr. James Krejci,
the Companys former President and Chief Executive Officer, who resigned from the Board of
Directors on August 31, 2007, was not independent.

The shares of our common stock beneficially owned are reported on the basis of regulations of
the SEC governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under the rules of
the SEC, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has or
shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of such security,
or investment power, which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of
such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which
that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Securities that can be
so acquired are deemed to be outstanding for purposes of computing such persons ownership
percentage, but not for purposes of computing any other persons percentage. Under these
rules, more than one person may be deemed beneficial owner of the same securities and a person
may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which such person has no economic
interest. This table is based upon information supplied by officers, directors and principal
stockholders and Schedules 13D and 13G filed with the SEC. Except as otherwise indicated in
these footnotes and subject to community property laws where applicable, each of the
beneficial owners has, to our knowledge, sole voting and investment power with respect to the
indicated shares of common stock. In accordance with the beneficial ownership rules of the
SEC, the table does not reflect an aggregate of 1,073,834 shares of common stock reserved for
issuance upon the exercise of outstanding options not exercisable within 60 days held by
certain of our directors and executive officers. |

We entered into a consulting arrangement with Bolder Venture Partners (BVP) under a signed
letter of intent dated September 28, 2007, pursuant to which Gene Copeland will serve as our

also work with other BVP associates to accomplish these objectives. In exchange for these

After the first five months of the arrangement, or following the successful hiring of a President

$7,500 per month. We will also pay to BVP a monthly incentive fee equal to 10% of the amount of
monthly revenue increase above our current monthly revenue. We will also be required to reimburse
BVP for costs and expenses incurred by BVP pursuant to the arrangement, including lodging expenses
for Mr. Copeland, who is not a resident of the Denver metro area. We will grant to BVP a warrant
to purchase 1,200,000 shares of our common stock at $0.30 per share for five years. BVP has the same registration rights as those granted to participants in the Offering. The warrant will

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Our authorized capital stock consists of 250,000,000 shares of common stock. We also have
50,000,000 shares authorized of preferred stock with a $0.001 par value. None of the preferred
stock is issued and outstanding and we have no plans to issue any shares of preferred stock.
Description of Common Stock
Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on each
matter submitted to a vote of the stockholders. The shares of common stock have no conversion
rights or redemption provisions and include no preemptive rights or other rights to subscribe for
additional securities. Cumulative voting is not available to the holders of common stock.
In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Lifevantage, holders of the common
stock would be entitled to receive, on a pro-rata basis, all of our assets remaining after
satisfaction of all capital preferences and liabilities. Subject to preferences that may be
applicable to any shares of preferred stock then outstanding, the holders of common stock will be
entitled to receive such dividends, if any, as may be declared by the board of directors from time
to time out of legally available funds and to share pro rata in any distribution to the
shareholders, including any distribution upon liquidation.
38
Description of Preferred Stock
Our Articles of Incorporation also vest the board of directors with full authority to divide
the class of preferred stock into series and to fix and determine the relative rights and
preferences of the shares of any such series. These preferences may include, among other things:
|
|
|
the number of preferred shares to constitute such series and the distinctive
designations thereof; |
|
|
|
|
the rate and preference of dividends (if any), the time of payment of dividends,
whether dividends are cumulative and the date from which any dividend shall accrue; |
|
|
|
|
whether preferred shares may be redeemed and, if so, the redemption price and the
terms and conditions of redemption; |
|
|
|
|
the liquidation preferences payable on preferred stock in the event of involuntary
or voluntary liquidation; |
|
|
|
|
sinking fund or other provisions, if any, for redemption or purchase of preferred
stock; |
|
|
|
|
the terms and conditions by which preferred stock may be converted, if the Preferred
stock of any series are issued with the privilege of conversion; and |
|
|
|
|
voting rights, if any. |
We have not created any series of preferred stock and we have no plans to do so.
Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of Our Charter Documents
The following paragraphs summarize certain provisions of our Amended and Restated Articles of
Incorporation, or Amended Articles, and our Amended and Restated Bylaws, or Amended Bylaws. The
summary does not purport to be complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by
reference to our Amended Charter and Amended Bylaws, copies of which are on file with the
Commission as exhibits to reports previously filed by us. See Additional Information.
Our Amended Charter and Amended Bylaws contain provisions that, together with the ownership
position of our officers, directors and their affiliates, could discourage potential takeover
attempts and make it more difficult for shareholders to change management, which could adversely
affect the market price of our common stock.
Our Amended Charter limits the personal liability of our directors and officers to the fullest
extent permitted by law. The inclusion of this provision in our Amended Charter may reduce the
likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and may discourage or deter shareholders
or management from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their duty of care.
Our Amended Charter and Amended Bylaws provide that special meetings of shareholders can be
called only by our board of directors, our chief executive officer or holders of shares
representing not less than one tenth of the shares entitled to vote at the meeting.
Our Amended Charter prohibits us from engaging in any business combination with any interested
shareholder for three years following the date that such shareholder became an interested
shareholder, unless:
|
|
|
prior to the date of the transaction, our board of directors approved
either the business combination or the transaction which resulted in
the shareholder becoming an interested shareholder; |
|
|
|
|
upon completion of the transaction that resulted in the interested
shareholder becoming an interested shareholder, the interested
shareholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation
outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for
purposes of determining the number of shares outstanding (a) shares
owned by persons who are directors and also officers, and (b) shares
owned by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not
have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject
to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or |
|
|
|
|
on or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the business
combination is approved by the board of directors and authorized at an
annual or special meeting of shareholders, and not by written consent,
by the affirmative vote of at least 66⅔% of the
outstanding voting stock which is not owned by the interested
shareholder. |
Generally, a business combination includes a merger, asset or stock sale, or other transaction
resulting in a financial benefit to the interested shareholder. An interested shareholder is a
person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns or, within three years prior to the
determination of interested shareholder status, did own 15% or more of a corporations outstanding
voting securities. We expect the existence of this provision to have an anti-takeover effect with
respect to transactions our board of
directors does not approve in advance. We also anticipate that this provision may discourage
attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of common stock held
by shareholders.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
See the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page F-1, Index to Consolidated
Financial Statements.
DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
Neither our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation nor our Amended and Restated Bylaws
contain provisions that obligate us to indemnify our officers, directors, employees, agents, or
others for violations under the Securities Act. However, our Amended and Restated Bylaws do
require us to indemnify directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Colorado law. We
also are required to indemnify certain of the selling security holders and related persons against
certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Insofar as indemnification
for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted or required to directors,
officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

LIFEVANTAGE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2007 AND 2006
(UNAUDITED)
These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes should be read
in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes of LifeVantage Corporation
as of and for the year ended June 30, 2007 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.
Note 1 Organization and Basis of Presentation:
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by
us, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC). In the opinion of the management of Lifevantage Corporation
(LifeVantage or the Company), these interim Financial Statements include all
adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, that are considered necessary for
a fair presentation of the Companys financial position as of September 30, 2007, and the
results of operations for the three month periods ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 and the
cash flows for the three month periods ended September 30, 2007 and 2006. Interim results
are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year or for any future period.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to our current period
presentation.
The condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included herein are
presented as required by Form 10-QSB, and do not contain certain information included in
the Companys audited financial statements and notes for the fiscal year ended June 30,
2007 pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. For further information, refer to
the financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended June 30, 2007,
restated as discussed below and included in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB on file with
the SEC.
Effective September 26, 2007, the Company closed an offering of debentures convertible
into the Companys common stock. The net proceeds received by the Company of approximately
$956,000 will be used to expand marketing efforts, scientific studies, intellectual
property protection, as well as to provide the Company with additional working capital. The
funding significantly improves the Companys liquidity position from June 30, 2007 levels
and allows the Company to pursue plans for generating additional revenue while containing
cash outflow. There can be no assurance, however, that revenue generation and cost
containment measures will result in positive cash flow.
Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Consolidation
The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
wholly-owned subsidiary Lifeline Nutraceuticals Corporation (LNC). All inter-company
accounts and transactions between the entities have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to
the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial statements. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
The Company ships the majority of its product sales directly to the consumer via
United Parcel Service (UPS) and receives substantially all payment for these sales in the
form of credit card charges. Revenue from
direct product sales to customers is recognized upon passage of title and risk of loss to
customers when product is shipped from the fulfillment facility. Sales revenue and
estimated returns are recorded when product is shipped. The Companys return policy is to
provide a 30-day
F-5
money back guarantee on orders placed by customers. After 30 days, we do
not refund direct customers for returned product. To date, the Company has experienced
monthly returns of approximately 2% of sales. As of September 30, 2007 and 2006, the
Companys reserve balance for returns and allowances was approximately $129,000 and
$65,000, respectively.
For retail customers, the Company analyzes its contracts to determine the appropriate
accounting treatment for its recognition of revenue on a customer by customer basis.
In July 2005, we entered into an agreement with General Nutrition Distribution, LP
(GNC) for the sale of Protandim®, pursuant to which GNC has the right to return any and
all product shipped to them, at any time, for any reason. In July 2006, the Company began
the recognition of revenue under the agreement with GNC due to the accumulation of
historical sell-through and return data. The Company recognizes revenue and its related
costs when it obtains sufficient information to reasonably estimate the amount of future
returns. Accordingly, beginning July 1, 2006, the Company recognizes revenue associated
with sales to GNC when the product is sold by the distributor with an allowance for future
returns based on historical product return information. Prior to July 2006, all revenue
and related costs from GNC were deferred.
In July 2006, LifeVantage entered into an agreement with CVS/pharmacy (CVS) for the
sale of Protandim® throughout the CVS store network. Among the terms of the agreement,
one-half of the payment for all orders is withheld by CVS until certain sell-through
parameters are met. Since inception of the agreement, CVS has withheld approximately
$358,000. Since the Company does not have sufficient history with CVS to reasonably
estimate the sell-through of Protandim® within the CVS store network, 50% of the revenue
and related cost under the agreement with CVS has been deferred. The Company will
recognize deferred revenue and related cost of sales under the agreement with CVS when it
obtains sufficient sell-through information to reasonably estimate the amount of future
returns.
The table below shows the effect of the change in the Companys deferred revenue and
expense for the three months ended September 2007:

Accounts Receivable
The Companys accounts receivable primarily consists of receivables from retail distributors.
Management reviews accounts receivable on a regular basis to determine if any receivables will
potentially be uncollectible. The Company had two national retail distributors, GNC and CVS, and
several regional natural products distributors as of September 30, 2007. The Company has created
an allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $55,000 based on aging of its retail accounts
receivable.
For credit card sales to direct sales customers, the Company verifies the customers credit
card prior to shipment of product. Payment not yet received from credit card sales is treated as a
receivable on the accompanying balance sheet. Based on the Companys verification process and
historical information available, management does not believe that there
is justification for an allowance for doubtful accounts on credit card sales as of September
30, 2007. For direct sales, there is no bad debt expense for the three month period ended
September 30, 2007.
F-6
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using the
first-in, first-out method. The Company has capitalized payments to its contract manufacturer for
the acquisition of raw materials and commencement of the manufacturing, bottling and labeling of
the Companys product. The contract with the manufacturer can be terminated by either party with
90 days written notice. As of September 30, 2007 and June 30, 2007, inventory consisted of:

Earnings per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing the net income or loss by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per
common share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares and
potentially dilutive common share equivalents. The effects of potential common share equivalents
are not included in computations when their effect is antidilutive. Because of the net loss for
the three month periods ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, the basic and diluted average
outstanding shares are the same, since including the additional shares would have an antidilutive
effect on the loss per share calculation.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The Company has adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142). SFAS 142 establishes standards for accounting
for goodwill and other intangibles acquired in business combinations. Goodwill and other
intangibles with indefinite lives are not amortized.
When the company purchased the remaining interest in the Companys subsidiary, LNC, on March
10, 2005, the primary purpose was to secure the Companys intellectual property, i.e. patents. As
a result, the $2,000,000 purchase price was allocated to patent costs.
In addition to the $2,000,000 cost of acquiring the remaining interest in LNC, the subsequent
costs of applying for patents are also capitalized and, once the patent is granted, the costs are
amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the patents economic or legal life.
Capitalized costs will be expensed if patents are not granted. The Company reviews the carrying
value of its patent costs periodically to determine whether the patents have continuing value and
such reviews could result in the conclusion that the recorded amounts have been impaired. As of
September 30, 2007, one of the Companys three U.S. Patent applications was granted on July 10,
2007 and the remaining patent applications were in process of approval. The Company began
amortization of the granted patent during the quarter ended September 30, 2007.
As of September 30, 2007 and June 30, 2007, intangible assets consisted of:

Stock-Based Compensation
The Company adopted the modified prospective application of SFAS 123(R), Share-Based Payment
(SFAS 123(R)), for all options and warrants issued to employees and directors during the first
quarter ended September 30, 2006.
In an effort to advance the interests of the Company and its shareholders, the Company
established its 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the Plan) to provide incentives to certain
eligible employees who contribute significantly to the strategic and long-term performance
objectives and growth of the Company. The Plan was approved by shareholders during the November
21, 2006 shareholder meeting. Options to purchase 4,234,321 shares have been granted pursuant to
the Plan to various employees, officers, directors and Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) members at
prices between $0.19 and $3.47 per share, vesting over one to three-year periods. A maximum of
6,000,000 shares of common stock can be issued under the Plan in connection with the grant of
awards. Expired awards will be added back to the plan in accordance with the terms of the award.
Options granted prior to the adoption of the Plan were terminated and new options on
substantially identical terms and provisions (i.e., identical number of underlying shares, exercise
price, vesting schedule, and expiration date as the original options) were granted under the Plan.
As no modifications to the terms and provisions of the previously granted options occurred, the
Company accounted for the related compensation expense under SFAS 123(R) as it did prior to the
effective date of the Plan.
In certain circumstances, the Company issued common stock for invoiced services, to pay
creditors and in other similar situations. In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force 96-18
(EITF 96-18), payments in equity instruments to non-employees for goods or services are accounted
for by the fair value method, which relies on the valuation of the service at the date of the
transaction, or public stock sales price, whichever is more reliable as a measurement.
Compensation expense was calculated using the fair value method during the three month periods
ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. No new compensation
based warrants or options were granted during the three month period ended September 30, 2007. The
following assumptions were used for options and warrants granted during the three month period
ended September 30, 2006:
1. risk-free interest rate of between 4.71 and 4.97 percent in the three month
period ended September 30, 2006;
2. dividend yield of -0- percent;
3.
expected life of 2 - 6 years in fiscal 2007; and
4. a volatility factor of the expected market price of the Companys common stock
between 185 and 211 percent in the three month period ended September 30, 2006.
Derivative financial instruments
We do not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign
currency risks.
We analyze convertible debentures under the guidance provided by Emerging Issues Task Force
(EITF) Issues EITF 00-19 and EITF 05-02 and review the appropriate classification under the
provisions of SFAS 133 and EITF 00-19.
We review the terms of convertible debt and equity instruments we issue to determine whether
there are embedded derivative instruments, including the embedded conversion option, that are
required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as derivative instrument liabilities. Also,
in connection with the sale of convertible debt and equity instruments, we may issue freestanding
options or warrants that may, depending on their terms, be accounted for
as derivative instrument liabilities, rather than as equity. For option-based derivative
financial instruments, we use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value the derivative
instruments.
Certain instruments, including convertible debt and equity instruments and the freestanding
warrants issued in connection with those convertible instruments, may be subject to registration
rights agreements, which impose penalties for failure to register the underlying common stock by a
defined date. These potential penalties are accounted for in accordance with FAS No. 5, Accounting
for Contingencies.
When the embedded conversion option in a convertible debt instrument is not required to be
bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative instrument, we review the terms of the
instrument to determine whether it is necessary to record a beneficial conversion feature, in
accordance with EITF Issues 98-05 and 00-27. When the effective conversion rate of the instrument
at the time it is issued is less than the fair value of the common stock into which it is
convertible, we recognize a beneficial conversion feature, which is credited to equity and reduces
the initial carrying value of the instrument.
F-8
When convertible debt is initially recorded at less than its face value as a result of
allocating some or all of the proceeds received in accordance with Accounting Principles Board
(APB) Opinion No. 14, to derivative instrument liabilities, to a beneficial conversion feature or
to other instruments, the discount from the face amount, together with the stated interest on the
convertible debt, is amortized over the life of the instrument through periodic charges to income,
using the effective interest method.
Income Taxes
Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes (FIN 48), is effective for tax years beginning after December 15, 2006, and has
accordingly been adopted by the Company for the three months ended September 30, 2007. FIN 48
addresses the recognition and measurement of income tax positions using a more-likely-than-not
(MLTN) threshold, meaning there must be a more than 50% likelihood that a tax position taken
would be sustained, if challenged and considered by the highest court in the relevant jurisdiction.
FIN 48 provides detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and
disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the financial statements in accordance with
SFAS No. 109. Upon the adoption of FIN 48, we had no unrecognized tax benefits. During the three
months ended September 30, 2007, we recognized no adjustments for uncertain tax benefits.
Deferred income tax assets are adjusted by a valuation allowance, if necessary, to recognize
future benefits only to the extent, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not such
benefits will be realized. We recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax
positions in general and administrative expenses. No interest or penalties related to uncertain tax
positions were accrued at September 30, 2007. We expect no material changes to unrecognized tax
positions within the next twelve months. The adoption of FIN 48 has not had a material impact upon
our financial statements.
Reclassification
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to comply with current period
presentation.
Effect of New Accounting Pronouncements
We have reviewed other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting
pronouncements and do not believe any such pronouncements will have a material impact on
our financial statements.
Note 3 Accounting for Intellectual Property
Long-lived assets of the Company are reviewed annually as to whether their carrying value has
become impaired, pursuant to guidance established in SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The Company assesses impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. When an assessment for impairment of
long-lived assets, long-lived assets to be disposed of, and certain identifiable intangibles
related to those assets is performed, the Company is required to compare the net carrying value of
long-lived assets on the lowest level at which cash flows can be determined on a consistent basis
to the related estimates of future undiscounted net cash flows for such properties. If the net
carrying value exceeds the net cash flows, then impairment is recognized to reduce the carrying
value to the estimated fair value, generally equal to the future discounted net cash flow.
The recurring losses experienced by the Company have resulted in managements assessment of
impairment with respect to the capitalized patent costs. Analysis generated for this assessment
concluded that sales volumes, less the cost of manufacturing the product sold and less the
marketing and sales cost of generating the revenues, support managements conclusion that no
impairment to the capitalized patent costs has occurred.
Note 4 Convertible Debentures
As of September 26, 2007, gross proceeds of $1,075,000 were distributed to the Company
pursuant to a private placement offering of convertible debentures (the Debentures).
F-9
The term of the Debentures is three years at an interest rate of 8% per annum. Upon the
maturity date, all principal and interest will be paid in full or converted into common stock of
the Company at a conversion price of the lower of $0.20 per share or the average trading price for
the 10 days immediately prior to the maturity date. Holders of the Debentures may elect to convert
the Debentures into common stock of the Company at $0.20 per share at any time following the
closing date the offering, or September 26, 2007.
Prior to conversion or repayment of the Debentures, if (i) the Company fails to remain subject
to the reporting requirement under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for a period of at least 45
consecutive days, (ii) the Company fails to materially comply with the reporting requirements under
the Exchange Act for a period of 45 consecutive days, (iii) the Companys common stock is no longer
quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board or listed or quoted on a securities exchange, or (iv)
a Change of Control is consummated, the Company will be required upon the election of the holder to
redeem the Debentures in an amount equal to 150% of the principal amount of the convertible
debenture plus any accrued or unpaid interest.
The Company determined that the Debenture did not satisfy the definition of a conventional
convertible instrument under the guidance provided in EITF 00-19 and EITF 05-02, as an
anti-dilution provision reduces the conversion price dollar for dollar if the Company issues common
stock with a price lower than the conversion price of the Debentures. However, the Company has
reviewed the requirements of EITF 00-19 and concluded that, the embedded conversion option in the
Debenture qualifies for equity classification under EITF 00-19, and thus, is not required to be
bifurcated from the host contract. The Company also determined that the warrants issued qualify for
equity classification under the provisions of SFAS 133 and EITF 00-19.
The Company has reviewed the terms of the Convertible Debentures to determine whether there
are embedded derivative instruments, other than the conversion option, that may be required to be
bifurcated and accounted for separately as derivative instrument liabilities. Certain events of
default associated with the Convertible Debentures, including the holders right to demand
redemption in certain circumstances, have risks and rewards that are not clearly and closely
associated with the risks and rewards of the debt instruments in which they are embedded. We have
reviewed these embedded derivative instruments to determine whether they should be separated from
the Convertible Debentures. However, at this time, we do not believe that the value of these
derivative instrument liabilities is material.
In accordance with the provisions of APB Opinion No. 14, the Company allocated the proceeds
received in this transaction to the convertible debentures and warrants to purchase common stock
based on their relative estimated fair values. In accordance with EITF Issues 98-5 and 00-27,
management determined that the convertible debentures contained a beneficial conversion feature
based on the effective conversion price after allocating proceeds of the Debenture to the common
stock purchase warrants. As a result, the Company allocated $137,490 to the convertible debentures,
$415,005 to the common stock warrants, which was recorded in additional paid-in-capital, and
$522,505 to the beneficial conversion feature.
Interest charges associated with the Debentures, totaled $1,075 for the three months ended
September 30, 2007. A total of $186,789 was paid for commissions and expenses and is being
amortized over the term of the Debenture of 36 months.
Note 5 Stockholders Equity
Effective July 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS 123(R) for employees and directors. In
accordance with SFAS 123(R), payments in equity instruments for goods or services are accounted for
by the fair value method. For the three months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, stock based
compensation of $70,210, and $523,910 respectively, was reflected as an increase to additional paid
in capital. Of the $70,210 stock based compensation for the three months ended September 30, 2007,
$67,487 was employee related and $2,723 was non-employee related. For the three months ended
September 30, 2006, stock based compensation of $517,074 was employee related and $6,836 was
non-employee related.
During the three month period ended September 30, 2006, the Company granted warrants and
options to consultants for services rendered, under EITF 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments
That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or
Services. No warrants or options were granted to consultants for services rendered during the
three month period ended September 30, 2007.
Effective as of June 28, 2007, we offered to reprice warrants to purchase 6,001,866 shares of
our common stock issued to investors in 2005 pursuant to a private placement offering. These
warrants were originally exercisable at $2.00 and $2.50 per share by the warrant holder and may be
repriced to be exercisable at $0.30 per share upon the execution of a warrant amendment by the
Company and the warrant holder. As of September 30, 2007, holders of warrants to purchase
2,893,674 shares of our common stock issued in the private
F-10
placement offering have executed a
warrant amendment, and warrants to purchase 2,893,674 shares of our common stock have been repriced
to be exercisable at $.30 per share. As of September 30, 2007, warrants to purchase 35,000 shares
of our common stock have been exercised at $0.30 per share.
Effective June 28, 2007, we commenced a private placement offering of up to 300 units to
accredited investors to raise between $2,000,000 and $3,000,000 and effective September 18, 2007,
we revised certain terms of the offering to, among other things, raise between $1,000,000 and
$2,000,000 (2007 private placement). The Convertible Debentures are convertible into the
Companys Common Stock at $0.20 per share. At Maturity, we may elect to convert the outstanding
debentures into common stock at the lower $0.20 or the average trading price for the 10 days
immediately prior to the maturity date.
Each unit will include a Convertible Debenture with a principal amount of $10,000 and a
warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock at $0.30 per share exercisable for five years
after the closing. The Convertible Debentures bear interest at 8% per annum, and have a term of
three years. We intend to use the proceeds from the offering for marketing, scientific research,
development and testing of Protandim® and for working capital.
As of September 26, 2007, gross proceeds of $1,075,000 were collected into escrow and net
proceeds of $955,807, after payment of commissions and offering costs, were distributed to the
Company pursuant to the 2007 private placement.
If the conversion option embedded in the Convertible Debentures has not been bifurcated, then
if the effective conversion price for a Convertible Debenture is less than the market value of the
underlying shares at the time the debenture is issued (usually as a result of the allocation of
part of the proceeds received to common stock warrants or other instruments), the Company
recognizes a beneficial conversion feature in accordance with EITF Issues 98-05 and 00-27. The
value of the beneficial conversion feature, which is credited to additional paid-in capital,
reduces the initial carrying amount of the Debenture. During the three months ended September 30,
2007, the Company recorded beneficial conversion feature aggregating $522,505.
The discount from the face amount of the Convertible Debentures represented by the value
initially assigned to any associated Warrants and to any beneficial conversion feature is amortized
over the period to the due date of each Convertible Debenture, using the effective interest method.
For warrants and option-based derivative instruments, the Company estimates fair value using a
Black-Scholes valuation model, based on the market price of the common stock on the valuation date,
an expected dividend yield of 0%, a risk-free interest rate based on constant maturity rates
published by the U.S. Federal Reserve applicable to the remaining term of the instruments which was
4.27%, and an expected life equal to the remaining term of the instruments. Because of the limited
historical trading period of our common stock, the expected volatility of our common stock was
estimated at 74%, based on a review of the volatility of entities considered by management as most
comparable to our business.
The Companys articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of preferred shares. However,
as of September 30, 2007, none have been issued nor have any rights or preferences been assigned to
the preferred shares by the Board of Directors.
Note 6 Stock Option Grants and Warrants
Stock Option Grants During the three months ended September 30, 2007, the Company
did not grant any options to employees, officers, directors, or SAB members. During the three
months ended September 30, 2006, the Company granted options to purchase 605,000 shares of the
Companys stock to employees at a price of $0.76 per share and vesting over three years. These
options expire on September 26, 2016 if not exercised earlier. No additional options were granted
to directors or consultants during the three months ended September 30, 2006. The Company adopted
SFAS 123(R) beginning July 1, 2006 for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.
Warrants At September 30, 2007, compensation based warrants to purchase 1,679,516
shares of the Companys common stock were outstanding. There were no compensation based warrants
granted during the three months ended September 30, 2007. There were compensation based warrants to
purchase 9,000 shares of the Companys common stock granted during the three months ended September
30, 2006 at exercise prices ranging between $0.76 and $0.98 with a weighted average exercise price
of $0.90 and expiration dates ranging from July 31, 2008 to September 30, 2008.
At September 30, 2007, investment based warrants to purchase 5,966,866 shares of the Companys
common stock issued during the 2005 private placement were outstanding. Warrants to purchase
35,000 shares of the Companys common stock were exercised
during the three months ended September
30, 2007. As of September 30, 2007, 5,912,500 warrants to purchase the Companys common stock were
granted pursuant to the 2007 Private Placement.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
LifeVantage Corporation
Greenwood Village, Colorado
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of LifeVantage Corporation as
of June 30, 2007 and 2006 and the related consolidated statements of operations,
stockholders equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for the years then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to
perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included
consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion of the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of LifeVantage Corporation as of June 30,
2007 and 2006 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
As discussed in Notes 2 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
restated the balance sheet as of June 30, 2006 and statements of stockholders equity and
comprehensive income for the year ended June 30, 2006.

LIFEVANTAGE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 Organization and Basis of Presentation:
Lifevantage Corporation (LifeVantage or the Company) was formed under Colorado law in June
1988, under the name Andraplex Corporation. The Company amended its name to Yaak River Resources,
Inc. in January 1992, to Lifeline Therapeutics, Inc. in October 2004 and to Lifevantage Corporation
in November 2006. The Company is in the business of manufacturing, marketing and selling its
product Protandim® to individuals throughout the United States of America. The Company
began selling to individuals during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005 and to retail stores
beginning in fiscal year 2006. The Companys principal operations are located in Greenwood
Village, Colorado.
On October 26, 2004, the Company consummated an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization with
Lifeline Nutraceuticals Corporation (LNC), a privately held Colorado corporation, formed on July
1, 2003. The shareholders of LNC exchanged 81% of their outstanding shares of common stock for
15,385,110 shares of common stock of the Company, which represented 94% of the then issued and
outstanding shares of the Company. The Company assumed the obligations of LNC note holders as part
of the transaction.
For legal purposes, the Company acquired LNC and is the parent company of LNC. However, for
accounting purposes, LNC is treated as the acquiring company in a reverse acquisition of the
Company. As a consequence, the financial statements presented reflect the consolidated operations
of both LifeVantage and LNC for the two years ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006.
Liquidity and managements plans for operations
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company incurred net losses of
($3,693,578) and ($2,734,501) for the years ended June 30, 3007 and 2006 respectively. In addition,
the Company reported net cash used in operations of ($3,128,090) for the year ended June 30, 2007.
To address these losses, management began a turn-around strategy in January 2007 to reduce
operating expenses while implementing new customer service retention and recapture programs.
Managements cost containment and reduction measures and new plans under this strategy include the
following:
|
|
|
The Company re-evaluated its marketing programs and has either cancelled or allowed
to expire various marketing and positioning contracts, replacing them with a more
targeted advertising plan. The new marketing plan includes direct to consumer
interview style marketing that can be expanded or contracted according to available
cash flows. Cash flow savings from changing from the Companys previous national
marketing programs to the Companys targeted marketing approach are expected to be
approximately $1,600,000. |
|
|
|
|
During fiscal 2007, in effort to cut expenses, several employees were terminated and
consultant contracts were allowed to expire without renewal and management has balanced
corporate responsibilities among remaining personnel. Cash flow savings from changes to
the Companys current personnel are expected to be approximately $1,100,000. |
|
|
|
|
The Company re-evaluated its consultant contracts including web hosting and call
center operations and has either cancelled various contracts or allowed them to expire
and replaced them with more cost-efficient contracts. Cash flow savings from the
expiration or termination of the Companys consultant contracts are expected to be
approximately $400,000. |
|
|
|
|
The Company has adopted new marketing promotions as well as new customer service
retention and recapture programs. Such programs are not expected to increase sales
immediately but are expected to reduce direct sales erosion experienced in fiscal 2007.
Sales increases are expected to result from the redesign of e-commerce sites and
enhanced direct to consumer marketing, as well as expansion into the natural product
market with contracts with several well-known natural foods retailers and brokers. |
In addition to the cost savings outlined above, effective September 26, 2007, the Company
closed an offering of debentures convertible into the Companys common stock. The net proceeds
received by the Company of approximately $956,000 will be used to expand marketing efforts,
scientific studies, intellectual property protection, as well as to provide the Company with
additional working capital. The funding significantly improves the Companys liquidity position
from June 30, 2007 levels and allows the Company to pursue plans for generating additional revenue
while containing cash outflow. There can be no assurance that these cost reduction and containment
measures will result in positive cash flow.
Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Fiscal Year 2006 Restatement:
Fiscal Year June 30, 2006 Restatement
Subsequent to the issuance of our June 30, 2006 consolidated financial statements, our
management determined that certain information in the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated
statements of stockholders equity and comprehensive income should be restated for all periods
presented in response to comments of the Staff of the SEC.
On November 10, 2006, in response to comments raised by the Staff of the SEC concerning the
Companys registration statement filed on Form SB-2 and the Companys valuation of goodwill and
intangible assets on its financial statements, and to ensure that its
F-19
financial reporting remains
in full compliance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, the Companys Board of Directors,
concluded that it was appropriate to restate the Companys annual report on Form 10-KSB for the
year ended June 30, 2006. The Board determined that, due to a concurrent private placement of the
Companys common stock at $2.00 per share at about the time of the acquisition, the acquisition
cost of the minority interest in LNC should be recorded at $2,000,000. In addition, since the
primary purpose of purchasing the minority interest in its subsidiary was to gain control over its
intellectual property, the purchase price for the acquisition should have been allocated entirely
to intellectual property, i.e. patent costs.
The amendment restates and reclassifies intangible assets on our consolidated balance sheets
as of June 30, 2006. The amendment also restates the consolidated statements of stockholders
equity and comprehensive income for the year ended June 30, 2006.
The restatement has no impact on previously reported revenue, net income, earnings per share,
or cash. This Form 10-KSB contains changes to Part II Item 6, Item 7, and Item 8A to reflect
this restatement. There are no other significant changes to the original Form 10-KSB other than
those outlined above.
A summary of the effects of the restatement are as follows:

Consolidation
The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned
subsidiary, LNC. All inter-company accounts and transactions between the entities have been
eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the
reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to
prepare these consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
We ship the majority of our direct sales product by United Parcel Service (UPS) and receive
payment for those shipments in the form of credit card charges. Our return policy is to provide a
30-day money back guarantee on orders placed by customers. After 30 days, we do not refund
customers for returned product. We have experienced monthly returns approximating 2% of sales. We
record sales revenue and estimated returns upon the passage of title and risk of loss to customers
when the merchandise is shipped to the customer.
For retail customers, the Company analyzes its contracts and agreements to determine the
appropriate accounting treatment for its recognition of revenue on a customer by customer basis.
In July 2005, we entered into an agreement with GNC for the sale of Protandim®,
pursuant to which GNC has the right to return any and all product shipped to them, at any time, for
any reason. In July 2006, the Company began the recognition of revenue under the agreement with
GNC due to the accumulation of historical sell-through and return data. The Company recognizes
revenue and its related costs when it obtains sufficient information to reasonably estimate the
amount of future returns. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue associated with sales to GNC
when the product is sold by the distributor with an allowance for future returns based on
historical product return information. Prior to July 2006, all revenue and related costs from GNC
were deferred.
In July 2006, LifeVantage entered into an agreement with CVS/pharmacy (CVS) for the sale of
Protandim® throughout the CVS store network. Among the terms of the agreement, one-half
of the payment for all orders is withheld by CVS until certain sell-through parameters are met.
Since inception of the agreement, CVS has withheld approximately $358,000. Since the Company does
not have
F-20
sufficient history with CVS to reasonably estimate the sell-through of
Protandim® within the CVS store network, 50% of the revenue and related cost under the
agreement with CVS has been deferred. The Company will recognize deferred revenue and related cost
of sales under the agreement with CVS when it obtains sufficient sell-through information to
reasonably estimate the amount of future returns.
During the year ended June 30, 2007, the Company commenced sales of Protandim® to
several specialty retailers. Revenue is recognized according to the terms of each individual
agreement. Where the right of return exists beyond 30 days, revenue and related cost of sales is
deferred until sufficient sell-through information is received to reasonably estimate the amount of
future returns.
Accounts Receivable
The Companys accounts receivable consist of receivables from retail distributors. Management
reviews accounts receivable on a regular basis to determine if any receivables will potentially be
uncollectible. The Company had two national retail distributors, GNC and CVS, and several natural
products distributors as of June 30, 2007. The Company has created an allowance for doubtful
accounts of approximately $55,000 based upon aging of its retail accounts receivable.
For credit card sales to direct sales customers, the Company verifies the customers credit
card prior to shipment of product. Payment not yet received from credit card sales is treated as a
receivable on the accompanying balance sheet. Based on the Companys verification process and
historical information available, management does not believe that there is justification for an
allowance for doubtful accounts on credit card sales as of June 30, 2007. For direct sales, there
is no bad debt expense for the year ended June 30, 2007.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using the
first-in, first-out method. The Company has capitalized payments to its contract manufacturer for
the acquisition of raw materials and commencement of the manufacturing, bottling and labeling of
the Companys product. The contract with the manufacturer can be terminated by either party with
90 days written notice. As of June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006, inventory consisted of:

Earnings per share
Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing the net income or loss by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per
common share are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average common shares and
potentially dilutive common share equivalents. The effects of potential common stock equivalents
are not included in computations when their effect is antidilutive. Because of the net loss for
the years ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006, the basic and diluted average outstanding shares
are the same, since including the additional shares would have an antidilutive effect on the loss
per share calculation.
Research and Development Costs
The Company expenses all costs related to research and development activities as incurred.
Research and development expenses for the years ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006 were $245,561
and $114,163, respectively.
Advertising Costs
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended
June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006 were $1,264,872 and $1,980,901, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers only its monetary liquid assets with original maturities of three months
or less as cash and cash equivalents in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) 115.
Marketable Securities
During year 2006, Company purchased a portfolio of marketable securities primarily comprised
of corporate bonds. The Company considered its investment in debt instruments as marketable
securities available for sale. As of June 30, 2006, the portfolio declined in value and the
Company reported an unrealized loss of $55,607 in its accompanying Statement of Comprehensive
Income. In accordance
F-21
with SFAS 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities, the Company classified the investment as available for sale securities and reported
the unrealized loss in a separate component of shareholders equity as a comprehensive income item.
In the first quarter of year 2007, the Company established a margin account to borrow against
marketable securities so that sales of these securities would not have to occur in order to fund
operating needs of the Company. The interest rate on amounts borrowed was approximately 1% below
prime.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company liquidated its marketable securities
portfolio and paid off the margin debt. In addition to paying off the margin debt, the Company
invested funds in short term AAA rated money market Preferred Securities to maximize interest
income.
Investment in marketable securities are summarized as follows as of fiscal 2007 and 2006:

Deposit with Manufacturer
At June 30, 2007, the Company had a deposit of $388,791 with its contract manufacturer. At
June 30, 2006, the Company had a deposit of $555,301 with its contract manufacturer for acquisition
of raw materials and production of finished product. Throughout fiscal 2007 and 2006, the Company
offset reductions in the deposit against the trade payable to the manufacturer as purchases of
product occurred. As of June 30, 2007, the trade payable to the contract manufacturer was
approximately $8,600.
Shipping and Handling
Shipping and handling costs associated with inbound freight and freight out to customers are
included in cost of sales. Shipping and handling fees charged to customers are included in sales.
Property and Equipment
Property, software, and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation of property and
equipment is expensed in amounts sufficient to relate the expiring costs of depreciable assets to
operations over estimated service lives, principally using the straight-line method. Estimated
service lives range from three to seven years. When such assets are sold or otherwise disposed of,
the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss
is reflected in operations in the period of disposal. The cost of normal maintenance and repairs
is charged to expense as incurred. Significant expenditures that increase the useful life of an
asset are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the asset. Property and
equipment consist of:

Patents
As indicated above, the primary purpose of purchasing the remaining interest in the Companys
subsidiary, LNC, was to gain control over the Companys intellectual property, i.e. patents. As a
result, the $2,000,000 purchase price has been is allocated entirely to patent costs.
In addition to the $2,000,000 cost of acquiring the remaining interest in LNC, the costs of
applying for patents are also capitalized and, once the patent is granted, will be amortized on a
straight-line basis over the lesser of the patents economic or legal life. Capitalized costs will
be expensed if patents are not granted. The Company reviews the carrying value of its patent costs
periodically to determine whether the patents have continuing value and such reviews could result
in the conclusion that the recorded amounts have been impaired.
F-22
As of June 30, 2007, all patent
applications were in process of approval; therefore, there was no amortization expense for the
years ended June 30, 2007 or 2006. As discussed earlier, one of the three US Patent applications
was granted on July 10, 2007.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets of the Company are reviewed annually as to whether their carrying value has
become impaired, pursuant to guidance established in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The Company
assesses impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. When an assessment for impairment of long-lived
assets, long-lived assets to be disposed of, and certain identifiable intangibles related to those
assets is performed, the Company is required to compare the net carrying value of long-lived assets
on the lowest level at which cash flows can be determined on a consistent basis to the related
estimates of future undiscounted net cash flows for such properties. If the net carrying value
exceeds the net cash flows, then impairment is recognized to reduce the carrying value to the
estimated fair value, generally equal to the future discounted net cash flow.
The recurring losses experienced by the Company have resulted in managements assessment of
impairment with respect to the capitalized patent costs. Analysis generated for this assessment
concluded that sales volumes, less the cost of manufacturing the product sold and less the
marketing and sales cost of generating the revenues, support managements conclusion that no
impairment to the capitalized patent costs has occurred as of June 30, 2007.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, no amortization has been recorded, as the lives of the
intangible assets have not been determined.
Intangible assets consist of:

Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and
liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using statutory tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those
temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets
and liabilities from a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the
effective date of the change.
Concentration of Credit Risk
SFAS 105, Disclosure of Information About Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
and Financial Instruments with Concentrations of Credit Risk, requires disclosure of significant
concentrations of credit risk regardless of the degree of such risk. Financial instruments with
significant credit risk include cash and marketable securities. At June 30, 2007, the Company had
approximately $101,000 with one financial institution in an investment management account.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company began using the fair value approach, effective beginning in the first quarter of
fiscal 2007, to account for stock-based compensation, in accordance with the modified version of
prospective application as prescribed by SFAS 123(R). Had compensation cost for the Companys
stock option grants, prior to year ended June 30, 2007, been determined based on the fair value at
the grant date, consistent with the recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R) the effect on the
Companys net loss and loss per share for year ended June 30, 2007 would be as stated in the pro
forma amounts below.
Effective July 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS 123(R) for employees and directors. In
accordance with SFAS 123(R), payments in equity instruments for goods or services are accounted for
by the fair value method. For the year ended June 30, 2007, stock based compensation of
$1,345,200, was reflected as an increase to additional paid in capital. Of the $1,345,200 stock
based compensation, $1,199,440 was employee related and $145,760 was non-employee related.
The Company issued common stock for invoiced services in certain circumstances, to pay
creditors and in other similar situations. In accordance with SFAS 123(R), payments in equity
instruments to non-employees for goods or services are accounted for by the fair value method,
which relies on the valuation of the service at the date of the transaction, or public stock sales
price, whichever is more reliable as a measurement.
F-23
Warrants and options were granted to various directors for services rendered during the years
ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. An adjustment to net income for compensation expense to recognize
annual vesting would be recorded under SFAS 123(R), on a pro forma basis, as reflected in the
following table:

The fair value of the options granted in years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was estimated at the
date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
|
1. |
|
risk-free interest rate of between 4.54 and 4.97 percent in fiscal 2007 and
between 3.84 and 5.16 in fiscal 2006; |
|
|
2. |
|
dividend yield of 0 percent in fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2006; |
|
|
3. |
|
expected life of 5-6 years in fiscal 2007 and 2 3 years in fiscal 2006; and |
|
|
4. |
|
a volatility factor of the expected market price of the Companys common stock
of 74 percent in fiscal 2007 and between 187 and 263 percent in fiscal 2006. |
Reclassification
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to comply with current period
presentation.
Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information
SFAS 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information replaces the
industry segment approach under previously issued pronouncements with the management approach. The
management approach designates the internal organization that is used by management for allocating
resources and assessing performance as the source of the Companys reportable segments. SFAS 131
also requires disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. At
present, the Company only operates in one segment.
Comprehensive Income
SFAS 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income requires the presentation and disclosure of all
changes in equity from non-owner sources as Comprehensive Income. The Company had comprehensive
income/(loss) for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 of ($3,637,971) and ($2,790,108),
respectively.
Organization Costs
The Company accounts for organization costs under the provisions of Statement of Position
98-5, Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities which requires that all organization costs be
expensed as incurred.
Effect of New Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, SFAS 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pensions and Other
Post-Retirement Plans (SFAS 158), was issued by the FASB and is effective for financial
statements for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. SFAS 158 improves financial reporting
by requiring an employer to recognize the over funded or under funded status of a defined benefit
postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of
financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes
occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a
not-for-profit organization. This Statement also improves financial reporting by requiring an
employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement or
financial position, with limited exceptions. We anticipate that SFAS 158 will not have a material
impact on our financial statements.
F-24
In February 2007, SFAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
LiabilitiesIncluding an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159), was issued by the FASB
and is effective as of the beginning of an entitys first fiscal year that begins after November
15, 2007. SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain
other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities
with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets
and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. This
Statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the
Boards long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments. We anticipate
that SFAS 159 will not have a material impact on our financial statements.
Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (FIN) 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes, is effective for tax years beginning after December 15, 2006. FIN 48 addresses the
recognition and measurement of income tax positions using a more-likely-than-not (MLTN)
threshold, meaning there must be a more than 50% likelihood that a tax position taken would be
sustained, if challenged and considered by the highest court in the relevant jurisdiction.
We have reviewed other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and
do not believe any such pronouncements will have a martial impact on our financial statements.
Note 3 Acquisition of Minority Interest in Subsidiary and Accounting for Intellectual
Property
On March 10, 2005, the Company reached an agreement with the minority shareholder in the
Companys 81% owned subsidiary, LNC. In accordance with the terms of the agreement, the Company
exchanged 1,000,000 shares of its common stock for the remaining 4,500,000 shares of LNC,
representing 19% of the outstanding shares of LNC. As the Company was closing a private placement
of the Companys common stock at $2.00 per share at about the same time as the acquisition, the
valuation of the 1,000,000 shares of common stock is valued at $2,000,000. The acquisition of the
minority interest has been accounted for utilizing the purchase method of accounting resulting in
intellectual property, patent costs, of $2,000,000. Please refer to Note 2, Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies and Fiscal Year 2006 Restatement.
In connection with the purchase of the minority interest in LNC, the Company agreed to pay the
minority shareholder $250,000 for a non-compete agreement through March 2006. The payment terms
were $125,000 on the date of execution of the agreement and $125,000 in the form of a note payable,
which was paid on April 19, 2005. The non-compete agreement is being amortized over the term of
the agreement. Amortization expense totaled $166,668 for the year ended June 30, 2006, and $0 for
the year ended June 30, 2007.
Note 4 Stockholders Equity
On June 12, 2006, the Company purchased a portfolio of marketable securities primarily
comprised of corporate bonds. As of June 30, 2006 the portfolio declined in value and the Company
reported an unrealized a loss of $55,607. In accordance with SFAS 115, Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, the Company accounted for the investment as available
for sale securities and reported the unrealized loss and gain in a separate component of
shareholders equity as a comprehensive income item.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company established a margin account to borrow
against marketable securities so that sales of these securities would not have to occur in order to
fund operating needs of the Company. The interest rate on amounts borrowed was approximately 1%
below prime.
During the third quarter of Fiscal 2007, the Company liquidated its marketable securities
portfolio and paid off the margin debt. In addition to paying off the margin debt, the Company
invested funds in short term AAA rated money market Preferred Securities to maximize interest
income.
During Fiscal 2006 and Fiscal 2007, the Company granted warrants to consultants for services
rendered. In accordance with SFAS 123 (R), payments in equity instruments to non-employees for
goods or services are accounted for by the fair value method. For the year ended June 30, 2006 and
June 30, 2007, compensation of $96,655 and $145,760, respectively, was reflected as an increase to
additional paid in capital.
During Fiscal 2006 and Fiscal 2007, the Company granted options to employees under the
Companys 2007 Long-Term Incentive Plan. The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) effective July 1, 2007. In
accordance with SFAS 123(R), fiscal 2007, compensation expense to employees was $1,199,440 and none
in fiscal 2006.
The Company had an obligation to register common stock issued in the Companys April and May
2005 private placement and the shares underlying the warrants received by bridge note holders and
investors in the private placement. The Company filed a registration statement for these shares in
June 2005 on Form SB-2 and subsequently amended its registration statement. On January 12, 2007,
the Companys registration statement was declared effective.
On May 17, 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 150,000 shares of the
Companys common stock to an individual, Clark Griffith, who will provide Marketing services to the
Company. The closing price of the Companys common stock that day was $0.21 per share, and
accordingly, the Company recorded an expense in the consolidated statement of operations for the
year ended June 30, 2007 of $31,350.
The Companys articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of preferred shares. However,
as of June 30, 2007, none have been issued nor have any rights or preferences been assigned to the
preferred shares by the Board of Directors.
F-25
Note 5 Stock Option Grants and Warrants
Stock Option Grants During the year ended June 30, 2007, the Company granted stock
options to various employees and directors of the Company. The options granted the right to
purchase shares of the Companys common stock at prices between $0.19 and $0.76 per share. The
options are not transferable and expire on various dates through April 30, 2017. The Company
adopted SFAS 123(R) effective July 1, 2006 and values stock option compensation using the fair
value method.
During the year ended June 30, 2006, the Company granted stock options to various employees
and directors of the Company. The options granted the right to purchase shares of the Companys
common stock at prices between $2.00 and $3.47 per share. The options are not transferable and
expire on various dates through January 4, 2016. As the Company had not adopted SFAS 123(R) for
the year ended June 30, 2006, the pro forma impact of SFAS 123(R) is reflected in Note 2 under
Stock Based Compensation.
Warrants At June 30, 2007, 6,001,866 warrants granted during year ended June 30,
2005, 167,428 warrants granted during year ended June 30, 2006, and 1,512,088 warrants granted
during year ended June 30, 2007 to purchase the Companys common stock were outstanding. The
warrants granted during year ended June 30, 2005 are at exercise prices ranging between $2.00 and
$2.50 with a weighted average exercise price of $2.33 and expiration dates ranging from April 18,
2008 to May 31, 2008. The warrants granted during year ended June 30, 2006 are at exercise prices
ranging between $0.72 and $9.85 with a weighted average exercise price of $3.43 and expiration
dates ranging from July 31, 2007 to September 30, 2008. The warrants granted during year ended
June 30, 2007 are at exercise prices ranging between $0.18 and $6.00 with a weighted average

Note 6 Fair Value of Financial Instruments
SFAS 107 requires disclosures about the fair value for all financial instruments, whether or
not recognized, for financial statement
F-26
purposes. Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments are based on pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2007 and
2006. Accordingly, the estimates presented in these statements are not necessarily indicative of
the amounts that could be realized on disposition of the financial instruments.
Management has estimated the fair values of cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable,
accounts payable, and accrued expenses to be approximately their respective carrying values
reported in these financial statements because of their short maturities.
Note 7 Income Taxes
At June 30, 2007, the Company had a net operating loss (NOL) carry-forward of approximately
$5,800,000. At June 30, 2006, the Company had an NOL carry-forward of approximately $3,300,000.
The NOL may be offset against future taxable income, if any, until 2020. These carry-forwards are
subject to review by the Internal Revenue Service.
The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to deferred tax assets and liabilities
are as follows:

The Company has fully reserved the tax benefit of the net deferred tax assets by a valuation
allowance of the same amount, because the Company has determined that the probability of
realization of the tax benefit is less than likely to occur.
The Companys actual income tax benefit differs from the expected income tax benefit
determined by applying the statutory rate of 39% (34% federal and 5% state) to the net loss due to

PART II
Information Not Required in Prospectus
Item 24. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
The Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of Lifevantage Corporation
(Lifevantage), or the Amended Articles, include a provision that eliminates, to the
fullest extent permitted by Colorado law, the personal liability of its directors to
Lifevantage and its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of the directors
fiduciary duties. This limitation has no effect on a directors liability for:
|
(i) |
|
any breach of the directors duty of loyalty to the Corporation or to
its shareholders; |
|
|
(ii) |
|
acts of omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional
misconduct or a knowing violation of law; |
|
|
(iii) |
|
acts specified in Section 7-108-403 of the Colorado Business
Corporation Act; or |
|
|
(iv) |
|
any transaction from which the director directly or indirectly derived
any improper personal benefit. |
Further, the indemnification rights of directors will not affect the availability of
injunctions and other equitable remedies available to Lifevantages shareholders for any
violation of a directors fiduciary duty to Lifevantage or its shareholders.
The Amended Articles further authorize Lifevantage to indemnify its officers,
employees, fiduciaries or agents to the same extent as a director. Lifevantage may also
indemnify an officer, employee, fiduciary or agent who is not a director to a greater
extent than is provided in the Bylaw provisions, so long as it is not inconsistent with
public policy and it is provided for by general or specific action of its board of
directors or shareholders by contract.
The Amended and Restated Bylaws of Lifevantage, or the Amended Bylaws, also provide
for the indemnification of directors and officers. They permit Lifevantage to enter into
indemnity agreements with individual directors, officers, employees, and other agents.
These agreements, together with the Amended Bylaws and Amended Articles, may require
Lifevantage, among other things, to indemnify directors or officers against certain
liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors (other than
liabilities resulting from willful misconduct of a culpable nature), to advance expenses to
them as they are incurred, provided that they undertake to repay the amount advanced if it
is ultimately determined by a court that they are not entitled to indemnification, and to
obtain and maintain directors and officers insurance if available on reasonable terms.
The Colorado statutes and our Amended Bylaws provide for the indemnification of
officers, directors and other corporate agents in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify
such persons, under certain circumstances, for liabilities (including reimbursement of
expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act. Insofar as indemnification for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, hawse have been
advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.

Item 26. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
October 2004 Reorganization
On October 26, 2004, the Company completed a Plan and Agreement with Lifeline
Nutraceuticals Corporation (Lifeline Nutraceuticals) whereby the shareholders holding
approximately 81% of the outstanding stock of Lifeline Nutraceuticals exchanged their stock
in Lifeline Nutraceuticals for 15,385,110 shares of newly issued stock in the Company. The
newly issued shares represent approximately 94% of the outstanding stock of the Company.
In addition the Company exchanged $240,000 in new promissory notes for a like amount
of convertible debt obligations of Lifeline Nutraceuticals. The new promissory notes
contain the same privilege as the original notes to convert to shares of stock in the
Company at the rate of fifty cents per share. All note holders have converted their debt
into a total of 536,081 shares of common stock.
The Company also exchanged $559,000 in new promissory notes for a like amount of
bridge note obligations of Lifeline Nutraceuticals and raised a total of $3,104,000. The
bridge notes bear interest at 10% per annum and are due the earlier of six months from the
date of the exchange or the closing of the first $1,000,000 of the Companys proposed
private placement offering. The bridge note holder also received warrants to purchase
common stock to be issued in the private placement equal to the principal amount plus
interest divided by the per-share offering price, with an exercise price equal to the
offering pricing. The warrants are exercisable for a period of three years after the
closing of the offering. All but $160,000 were exchanged for shares of common stock and
Unit Warrants. The remaining debt plus interest was paid off using the cash proceeds from
the private placement.
The Company used no underwriter to complete this transaction. No finders fee,
commission, or other compensation was paid. The persons who received the Companys
securities are all persons who represented to the Company that they were accredited
investors and who were previously securities holders associated with Lifeline
Nutraceuticals.
The Company relied on the exemption from registration provided by Sections 4(2) and
4(6) under the Securities Act of 1933 for this transaction. The Company did not engage in
any public advertising or general solicitation in connection with this transaction. The
Company provided the accredited investor with disclosure of all aspects of our business,
including providing the accredited investor with the Companys reports filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, press releases, access to the Companys auditors, and
other financial, business, and corporate information. Based on the Companys
investigation, the Company believes that the accredited investors obtained all information
regarding the Company they requested, received answers to all questions the posed, and
otherwise understood the risks of accepting the Companys securities for investment
purposes.
Acquisition of remaining portion of Lifeline Nutraceuticals
On March 10, 2005, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of its restricted common stock
to acquire the remaining 19% interest in Lifeline Nutraceuticals Corporation from a single
sophisticated investor. No fee was paid to any underwriter, placement agent, or finder.
The securities were issued to a single sophisticated investor who had significant prior
experience with LNC. The Company received no cash proceeds as a result of the issuance of
the shares. The investor assigned to LTI 4,500,000 shares he owned in LNC (approximately
19%) in consideration for the 1,000,000 shares.
The Company relied on the exemption from registration provided by Sections 4(2) of the
Securities Act of 1933 for this transaction. We did not engage in any public advertising
or general solicitation in connection with this transaction. We provided the investor with
disclosure of all aspects of our business, including providing the investor with our
reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, our press releases, access to
our auditors, and other financial, business, and corporate information, and the investor
was represented by his personal counsel in the transaction. Based on our investigation, we
believe that the investor obtained all information regarding LTI that he requested,
received answers to all questions he and his advisors posed, and otherwise understood the
risks of accepting our securities for investment purposes.
2005 Private Placement Offering
On April 19, 2005, the prior commitment to issue common stock purchase warrants (the
Bridge Warrants) to holders of bridge financing notes (Bridge Notes) issued by
Lifevantage was quantified. The transaction was completed effective April 18, 2005.
Lifevantage issued Bridge Warrants to purchase 1,592,569 shares of common stock exercisable
at $2.00 per share through April 18, 2008 to all persons who were previously holders of
Bridge Notes that Lifevantage had issued during 2004 and in January and February 2005.
There was no principal underwriter in the transaction for the issuance of the Bridge
Warrants. As previously disclosed, placement agents did assist in the placement of the
Bridge Notes, but their activities were not relevant to the issuance of the Bridge
Warrants. The prior purchasers of the Bridge Notes, and therefore the persons to whom the
Bridge Warrants were issued,
II-2
were all accredited investors as defined in Section 2(a)(15)
of the Securities Act of 1933 (the 1933 Act) and Rules 215 and 501(a) thereunder.
Lifevantage relied on the exemption from registration provided by Sections 4(2) and 4(6)
under the 1933 Act for the issuance of the Bridge Warrants, as well as Regulation D.
On April 18, 2005, Lifevantage received $2,659,000 in cash and $2,469,536 in
cancellation of indebtedness from certain persons holding Bridge Notes. The transaction
was completed effective April 18, 2005. To complete the transaction, Lifeline issued: (i)
2,564,297 shares of common stock at a price of $2.00 per share; and (ii) Warrants (Unit
Warrants) to purchase 2,564,297 shares of common stock exercisable at $2.50 per shares
through April 18, 2008. Of the total amount raised, we received $2,659,000 in cash, for
which we issued 1,329,500 shares of common stock and an equal number of Unit Warrants. The
remaining shares of common stock and Unit Warrants were issued in exchange for the
cancellation of the indebtedness represented by the Bridge Notes. Lifevantage relied on
the exemption from registration provided by Sections 4(2) and 4(6) under the 1933 Act for
the issuance of the Bridge Warrants, as well as Regulation D.
The placement agent for the transaction was Keating Investments, LLC, 5251 DTC
Parkway, Suite 1090, Greenwood Village, Colorado 80111 (Keating). Each of the purchasers
were accredited investors as defined in Section 2(a)(15) of the 1933 Act and Rules 215 and
501(a) thereunder. Lifevantage paid Keating $265,900 in commissions and $75,000
non-accountable expense allowance. Lifevantage also issued to the Placement Agent warrants
to purchase 159,255 shares of common stock exercisable at $2.00 per share through April 18,
2008. An additional 117,500 warrants were issued relating to bridge note conversions.
On April 18, 2005, Lifevantage also completed the exchange of the principal of (in the
amount of $240,000) and interest on (in the amount of $28,040) certain outstanding
convertible notes (the Convertible Notes). Lifevantage issued 536,081 shares of its
common stock to the holders of the Convertible Notes pursuant to the terms of those
Convertible Notes that Lifevantage had issued during 2003 and early 2004. There was no
principal underwriter in the transaction for the issuance of the common stock to the
holders of the Convertible Notes; previously there was no placement agent in connection
with the issuance of the Convertible Notes. The prior purchasers of the Convertible Notes,
and therefore the persons to whom the common stock were issued, were all accredited
investors as defined in Section 2(a)(15) of the 1933 Act) and Rules 215 and 501(a)
thereunder. The Company relied on the exemption from registration provided by Sections
4(2) and 4(6) under the 1933 Act for the issuance of common stock in exchange for the
Convertible Notes, as well as Regulation D.
On May 16, 2005, Lifevantage received $2,326,627 in cash from certain accredited
investors and $544,804 in cancellation of indebtedness from certain persons holding Bridge
Notes. To complete the transaction, the Company issued 1,435,719 shares of common stock at
a price of $2.00 per share and Warrants (Unit Warrants) to purchase 1,435,719 shares of
common stock exercisable at $2.50 per share until their expiration date, April 18, 2008.
Of the total amount raised, we received $2,326,627 in cash, for which we issued 1,163,314
shares of common stock and an equal number of Unit Warrants. The remaining shares of
common stock and Unit Warrants were issued in exchange for the cancellation of the
indebtedness represented by the Bridge Notes. Lifevantage relied on the exemption from
registration provided by Section 4(2) under the 1933 Act for the issuance of the common
stock and the Unit Warrants, as well as Regulation D.
The placement agent for the transaction was Keating. Lifevantage paid Keating
$232,663 in commissions with no further non-accountable expense allowance. (Lifevantage
previously paid Keating a $75,000 non-accountable expense allowance as described in a Form
8-K reporting an event of April 18, 2005.) Lifevantage also issued to Keating warrants to
purchase 127,526 shares of common stock exercisable at $2.00 per share until their
expiration date, April 18, 2008.
The shares of common stock of the Company underlying the Bridge Warrants, Unit
Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants were subsequently registered pursuant to a
registration statement on Form SB-2 filed by the Company, which was declared effective by
the SEC on January 12, 2007.
2007 Private Placement Offering
On September 26 and October 31, 2007, the Company sold convertible debentures
(Units), which each consist of a convertible debenture with a principal amount of $10,000
and a warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of common stock of the Company, in the aggregate
amount of $1,490,000 (the Offering).
The Units were offered and sold in the Offering only to persons who meet the
definition of accredited investor set forth in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to persons who are not U.S. persons as
defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act, pursuant to exemptions from registration
provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act and Regulation S of the
Securities Act.
Each Unit includes a convertible debenture in a principal amount of $10,000, bearing
interest at 8% per annum with a maturity date of three years from the closing date of the
Offering. Upon the maturity date, all principal and interest will be paid in
II-3
full or
converted into common stock of the Company at a conversion price of the lower of $0.20 per
share or the average trading price for the 10 days immediately prior to the Maturity Date,
subject to certain conditions being fulfilled at the time of conversion. Holders of the
convertible debentures may elect to convert the convertible debentures into common stock of
the Company at $0.20 per share at any time following the closing date of the Offering.
If during the term of the convertible debentures (i) the Company fails to remain
subject to the reporting requirement under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for a period
of at least 45 consecutive days, (ii) the Company fails to materially comply with the
reporting requirements under the Exchange Act for a period of 45 consecutive days, (iii)
the Companys common stock is no longer quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board or
listed or quoted on a securities exchange, or (iv) a Change of Control is consummated, the
Company will be required upon the election of the holder to redeem the convertible
debentures in an amount equal to 150% of the principal amount of the convertible debenture.
Change of Control means the closing of any of the following: (a) the sale, conveyance or
disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; (b) the effectuation
of a transaction or series of related transactions by the Company in which more than 50% of
the voting power of the Company is disposed of (other than as a direct result of the
issuance of securities by the Company in a capital raising transaction); (c) the
consolidation, merger or other business combination of the Company with or into any other
entity, immediately following which the prior stockholders of the Company fail to own,
directly or indirectly, at least 50% of the voting equity of the surviving entity; (d) a
transaction or series of transactions in which any person or group (as such term is used
in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) acquires more than 50% of the voting
equity of the Company (other than the issuance of securities by the Company in a capital
raising transaction); or (e) a transaction or series of transactions that constitutes or
results in a going private transaction (as defined in Section 13(e) of the Exchange Act
and the regulations thereunder).
Each Unit includes a warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of the Companys common stock
at an exercise price of $0.30 per share. The warrants have a five-year term and may be
exercised at any time following issuance. The warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis
beginning one year after the closing date of the Offering at any time that the Company
fails to have a current prospectus available for immediate resale of the common stock
underlying the warrants.
Subject to 30 business days prior notice to the holders of the warrants, and provided
a registration statement is in effect covering the common stock underlying the warrants,
all, but not less than all, of the warrants will be callable by the Company at $0.01 per
share at any time after the closing price of the Companys common stock exceeds 250% of
$0.20 per share for any 20 consecutive trading days and average daily volume during the
same period exceeds an average of 150,000 shares per day.

UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
1. |
|
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective
amendment to this registration statement to: |
|
(a) |
|
Include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities
Act; |
|
|
(b) |
|
Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or
together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration
statement and notwithstanding the forgoing, any increase or decrease in volume
of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would
not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high
end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospects filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the
aggregate, the changes in the volume and price represent no more than a 20%
change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the Calculation of
Registration Fee table in the effective registration statement; and |
|
|
(c) |
|
Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of
distribution. |
2. |
|
For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective
amendment as a new registration statement relating to the securities offered, and the
offering of the securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide
offering. |
3. |
|
File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities
that remain unsold at the end of offering. |
4. |
|
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant
to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in
the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. |
5. |
|
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than
the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection
with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of
its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court
of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue. |
II-7
